We had a case like this years ago in my state. Cops made a mistake and entered the wrong house late at night. The man, being totally innocent saw several men coming up his driveway, he knew he had broken no crimes ever, so thought a gang, he ran to his room and got a shotgun. He had a wife and two kids in the house. He stated they busted down the door, then he shot from from the other side of the living room at the hallway..then they started screaming police entering the home,

Imagine how he felt, were they police, were they playing cops, totally dark. Long story the man was yelling stop, I don't know who you are, the cops yelling for him to come out...it finally settled out, but one cop injured.

The man was arrested, but later released and awarded a multimillion lawsuit. The cops info was terrible, as I recall they weren't even on the right street.
