Just know this guys: Special Weapons and Tactics teams have a certain set of rules and guidelines, rules of engagement, ect. that they MUST follow when putting a house under siege, that could house potentially dangerous armed criminals. The men here were just doing their jobs. The fault here lies with the people who sent these men to the wrong house. The SWAT team does not collect intel on a house before they raid it. That is above their paygrade.

Also, why the hell do we only hear about the stories where cops forget up? What about stories where cops successfully do their job: protecting the innocent and maintaining order? Guess that's too boring.

but that was that guys home. so they looked in the right place. it dosnt matter if he was home at the time or not. it wasn't the wrong house.

except it was the wrong house. the abc video clearly shows that the criminal did not live there. and, if you've seen the other news articles about it, they went to another house down the street and found the guy there.

Quote from: news article

A few hours after the raid took place, police located the suspect they had been seeking at a different house in the neighbourhood. The officers knocked on the door, the suspect opened it, and agreed peacefully to come in for questioning.
