Based on the article alone, apparently cops are allowed to enter a home if they hear something.
I have a couple of friends on the force - confirmed, thats him from the felony rap sheet.. also, it appears the house he went into, was not just battery - was attempted murder of the resident...
Was choking a person in the house when the police arrived. THat’s why they entered.
They will try, but this will likely not go Ferguson level -
Convicted armed robber - jumping in and out of traffic - choking someone at residence - attacks police - game over.. good night gentle giant...
all that said, the local media is tripping over themselves to make this Ferguson...
