Little Rock - Little Rock police are investigating a report of a home invasion in which the suspects were dressed in law enforcement garb and claimed to be police officers.

Witnesses told police the men wore yellow vests with the word 'police' Monday night when they went to a home where three women were. The men also had baseball caps with the word 'SWAT' on them.

The fake police told the women they were looking for a man at the residence. The women said he wasn't home but the impersonators said they had a search warrant and forced their way inside. Police say they pulled guns, made the women lie down and took an undetermined amount of money.

Police are searching for the men

Didn't Jeff White just close a clone of this thread?

Looks that way. Home invasion threads are not too welcome.

Home Invasions and Body Armor

How about "What body armor to wear while the fake police are kicking down my door"? And "Should I shoot back with a 9 or a .45" ?

I dont understand why home invasion is off limits? Isn't this just news?

Could someone explain as they lock this, if they do?

It may be locked because there is just too much strong feelings towards wanting to cooperate with a LEO visit and there is such passion against those who use a guile, ruse or disguise to gain entry into a home and then do what they will against the will of the inhabitants.

Usually it is successful against homes that are not armed.

Usually the only news in this state is that a home invader died during the night trying to get in or flee after being caught and shot at. Those are just passing news and life goes on.

But when you have a successful invasion based on ruses... that opens a whole can of worms.

It is the can that gets these kinds of threads locked. At least maybe get the word out to our neighbors in time in case this group tries to pull one on them.

Generally threads like this get locked because they've been done to DEATH

um unless you have reason for a cop to come to your residence (e.g.) drugdealer chances are its a phony. I have yet to see a criminal put in enough effort to make an authentic looking cop car.

Do a search in this forum, general discussion and lwgal on this subject. You will find literally dozens of threads on this subject. They invariably always end up the same way, locked. Often members are banned for what they say in threads on this subject. The membership has proven time and again that it is incapable of discussing this subject and staying on The High Road.

Read through the literally thousands of posts on this subject and then come back and tell me you have something to say that hasn't been said before.
