[QUOTE="TenBears, post: 2617136, member: 8789"] Texas, Killeen [url]http://kdhnews.com/news/crime/killeen-police-served-no-knock-warrant-in-shootout-friday/article_534aca0a-dbea-11e3-b0c5-0017a43b2370.html?mode=jqm[/url] The warrant, issued May 8, authorized Killeen police to search the apartment and two vehicles of 49-year-old Marvin Louis Guy. The warrant, drafted by the Bell County Organized Crime Unit, stated that investigators believed Guy was dealing cocaine. The warrant indicated police expected to find cocaine, money and possibly weapons in the apartment or in Guy’s vehicles. Members of KPD’s SWAT team were attempting to execute that warrant when the fatal shooting occurred. The officers were breaching an apartment window when Guy opened fire on them, according to an arrest affidavit. When the gunfire stopped, one officer, Odis Denton, was shot in the leg and a second, Detective Charles Dinwiddie, was critically wounded. Dinwiddie died Sunday. Killeen Municipal Judge Mark Kimball signed the warrant, and also authorized police to conduct a “no knock” entry. So-called “no knock” authorization exempts law enforcement from identifying themselves and announcing their purpose before using force to enter a dwelling with a search warrant. “No knock” warrants are necessary, according to some law enforcement agencies, because criminals will start destroying the evidence as soon as police identify themselves. This will be interesting to watch, the identical thing occurred in Texas a few months ago.
