"72 year old man gets in shoot out with SWAT over no knock raid of his poker game." - GoFuckYourself.com

Quote:

There were 12 people and Awtry in the house at 502 Pine Knoll Drive when police arrived at about 9:20 pm last night. According to frontline witnesses, they had just finished a small buy-in dinnertime tourney ? and a 1/2 cash game was just getting underway when someone saw 5-0 approaching on a security monitor. Before he could clearly vocalize an alert, a battery ram begin slamming the front door and players froze. Awtry, who players say has notoriously bad hearing in his senior years and presumably believed the game was being robbed, began shooting at the door with his pistol, firing ?at least once? according to a player, ?multiple shots? according to police. At least four officers returned fire at the door with at least 20 bullets from their higher-powered assault weapons.

As Awtry fell back into the poker room entryway, he balked, ?Why didn?t you tell me it was the cops??

Police supposedly pulled backed after the exchange of gunfire to secure the perimeter while players inside called 911 to report that people were hurt, they needed an ambulance, and they meant no harm. Eventually they all had to remove their shirts as they came out of the house one by one to be handcuffed and transported downtown for questioning and gunshot residue tests. All were eventually released and received $100 gambling citations except for the Awtry, who is still in police custody at the hospital, charged with attempted murder and possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime. He could face additional charges related to the allegedly illegal gambling operation.

ottopottomouse · 11-06-2010, 10:38 AM

Made a bit of a mess of his front door.

BlackCrayon · 11-06-2010, 10:43 AM

why are the cops raiding small private poker games?

SteveHardeman · 11-06-2010, 10:47 AM

Thank god that the police are there to protect us from ourselves. I mean, some of these guys could have maybe had fun. A few may have actually lost a couple hundred bucks. Excellent use of manpower indeed.

They were trying to beat down the door of an old dude who couldn't hear, in South Carolina. Maybe you have to be a Southerner to understand why that's a bad idea.

I understand what you're saying.

The cops can knock down your down, they have to sometimes.

But I don't anticipate the cops trying to knock my door down, because,,,Why?

I'm not involved in anything that should cause that to happen; ie:normal person.

Maybe if I was a drug kingpin then I would think it was the cops or a rival
gang coming to make a hit. Tough choices.

sure it is. people open up little gamble shops and dont have security. even a small place could net a robber $1000 so you could loose your life hanging in such a place. modesto in cali has a few

not saying that i visited them.

...or if you were playing poker with friends.

...or if the police got the wrong house (and accidentally ended up shooting your daughter in the head while she slept).

SWAT should not be raiding home poker games. Period!

The only reason police departments have such a hard on for drug raids and gambling raids is because they usually end up getting to keep all property and money seized.

SC Supreme court just heard arguments on a case in which a lower court overturned the conviction and ruled that poker is a game of skill in which players can learn and improve. A lot of people expect the Supreme court to let that lower court ruling stand, so it seems the police want to get their last few in before the ruling comes out.

st0ned · 11-08-2010, 10:03 AM

Fuck SWAT. The assholes raided my house a month ago, arrested me in the street at gunpoint, interrogated me for hours. The end result was they had the wrong guy. Some asshat didn't do his job and they thought I was responsible for a string of bank robberies.

What a crazy news story this is though. Poor old guy, likely didn't realize what he was doing until after the fact.

That happened to me 15 years ago.

I was a bank robbery suspect. The swat team came in through the front door 10 deep. I had no idea what was going on at 6am. They were on me so fast, i could not reach for a gun. LUCKEY ME!!

I got seriously interrogated while hand cuffed in my underwear in my own apt. while all of the neighbors watched. Seriously sucked ass!

They Caught the 4 guys that actually did it an hour later.

All i got was, "sorry we made a mistake".

Im guessing somebody who did not like me or thought it would be funny to drop my name to one of those tip lines. Will never know.

There was no legal recourse for there honest/good faith mistake.

pornguy · 11-08-2010, 11:34 AM

Very much a waste of man power. they could have had a couple detectives show at at 2pm with a black and white and knocked on the door. Showed them what they had and said its done. here is your citation. and no one would have gotten hurt.

Strange thing to quote myself buy I've just received negative rep again for this thread... it looks like it was the same person. Could it be the police themselves posting here at GFY?
