Houston Police Chief Art Acevedo said the drug raid on the home stemmed from numerous complaints from neighbors. He said undercover officers had previously made two purchases of black tar heroin from drug dealers at the house.
Armed with a search warrant, nine narcotics detectives backed up by at least six patrol officers surrounded the home just before 5 p.m. on Monday.
After a 54-year-old officer, the lead investigator on the case, broke open the front door, a 33-year-old officer armed with a shotgun entered the residence and was immediately attacked by a pit bull, Acevedo said.
He said that the officer being attacked shot and killed the dog.
One of the suspects, Tuttle, charged from the back of the house firing a revolver at the officer, hitting him in the shoulder.
“He went down and fell on the sofa in the living room,” Acevedo said of the wounded officer. “A female suspect went towards that officer, reached over the officer and started making a move for his shotgun.”
Another officer who entered the house was allegedly shot by Tuttle.
Acevedo said officers opened fire, killing Nicholas and engaged in a gun battle with Tuttle.

Funny that there was no heroin found. I guess the police forgot to bring any.
Would have much been better if it hit him in the face.
You won't mind if I don't just take him at his word.
“...Houston Police Chief Art Acevedo..”
Another gadfly liberal chief just like that jarf Scott Israel in Broward County. Truth be known most if not all big liberal cities have chiefs like this.
