The search started in a development adjoining the guy's property. The deputies had to go through a wooded area that seperated the properties to get into this guy's yard.

They theorize that his sensors alerted him to their presence and he went out armed to confront whoever it was.

They keep mentioning his expensive cars but the only one I could make out on the news was a souped-up Neon :-)

Anyone with the problems that he has had in the past would have had a fence around his place.
This story stinks of police being someplace they did not belong. If they are pursuing a suspect, within sight, then OK. On a cold trail with a dog, no way!!! That dog may have been following a bitch in heat for all they knew.
I handled and trained attack and patrol dogs for 15 years.
Bad cops and a story that shouldn't hold up in court.
