Terrible Tragedy, this Situation was not of great tactics! A mobile home is a bad scenario, almost a suicide mission. This has to change and the Protective Gear, Failed!! Please wear head and neck protection~all Heavily covered Everywhere. Change the Format/Law so a mechanical apparatus can legally serve this warrant! I'm a former wife of an Officer, I cringe when I see these Horrific Endings of a Peace Officer. Your Service Deputy Sheriff Dom Calata is Commendable! Another Golden Blue Star in the Sky tonight ...Gone way too soon.
