So this happened early this morning. Williamson county police battering rammed my front door before dawn.

I wasn’t there. But they knocked loudly on the door close to 3am and when the family woke up and went to answer the door, the police proceeded to ram the door open even though the family and kids kept saying that they would open the door for them.

When the police came in, they aimed their guns at the family and searched the house.

Police informed me that they had received a call saying that there was a burglary in progress in my house.

So rather than knock on the door and let the family living there answer the door like civilized people, police rammed the door in. The family allowed the police to come in and brewed them coffee. But when the police were asked if they would pay for the damages their response was that they had “reasonable doubt” that there was a burglary going on.

So yeah….getting a new door in tomorrow morning at 8:30am…have to replace the door jam and the door.

If I find out who made that call I am going to go Medieval on their behinds. Nearly $420 for a new door….and paying for door jam and contractor is making it close to $800 that I didn’t plan on shelling out because of someone making a false call.

Police came by at 8:30am to drink more coffee and to apologize….but apologizing doesn’t replace a broken door.
