OMAK, Wash. -- Okanogan County sheriff's deputies seeking a person on outstanding warrants broke down the door to the wrong home and then jolted a man with a Taser in front of his wife and child.

Sheriff Frank Rogers says the bottom line is officers messed up.

No one was seriously injured in the 4:50 a.m. Thursday incident.

Rogers says he delayed releasing information on the botched search until Monday so he could investigate the matter.

The heavily armed officers apparently burst into the wrong trailer at the Homestead Trailer Park in Omak.

The man they were seeking, 30-year-old Joseph M. Parisien, heard the ruckus and tried to escape from another trailer.

He was arrested without incident
