True story. So a father was asleep at home with his two kids, 1 & 3, when the police bust in the door around 4:30 a.m. Dad fires one shot at the door because he wakes up and just sees a guy in his house. Realizes after he shoots that it's a cop and puts the gun down.

When the kids were finally given back, the baby was unrecognizable. The mom took the baby to the hospital where he was finally given emergency care. Dad is still charged with attempted murder. Oh and this is in Pensacola, Florida y'all.

In the process, the police take the kids and drop the 1 y/o causing severe trauma to the baby's head. They tried to cover it up. Didn't tell the dad that they dropped his kid. Prevented EMS from taking the kid to the hospital.

With hands up, the dad is apologizing profusely. The cops apparently had a warrant but it wasn't for the dad. It was for computer equipment that belonged to someone else. They charge the dad with attempted murder on a police officer.
