One thing about this ugly incident is that no one seems to agree on anything. The cops have one story. The guy inside has another. And folks who were in nearby apartments have their own versions.
Which version gets told depends on whether the writer is pro-police or not.
But I do wonder about your above statement. Let’s say the guy inside started shooting at the knock. I can’t believe the cops would have then broken the door down. It would seem more logical that they would have backed off, and called SWAT.
It makes more sense that the inside guy fired after the door was breached.
He shot a cop through the door.
