... and opened fire to break the lock off the metal front door.

So, someone is outside his house ... SHOOTING to break open the suspect's front door ... and he's in trouble for returning fire.

Sorry, but shooting open the front door is piss poor procedure on the part of the LV Police Department ... extremely piss poor.

I thought shooting at a lock to break down a door was an idiot move only done in movies......not by “trained professionals”

And just so people know,, the door shooting is almost sure to be those 12 ga “breaching round” shotshells. Size of a 12 ga slug, but it somehow is destroyed into powder on impact.

Blow a lock assembly or hinges right away.
But they sound exactly like a full on 12 Ga.

A great legitimate tool in a legitimate circumstance, ie,,Iraq,,,or maybe here for hostage rescue. But to stop some dope from being flushed?
We truly have lost inmeasurable rights in the war on drugs.
