Last night in the southeast Atlanta area, a DeKalb County Police Officer was shot while responding to a 911 call. In addition to the officer, who has not been identified, the homeowner was shot in the leg and his dog was killed. Unfortunately, this was a case of the wrong address.
Three officers were responding to a report of suspicious person, but instead went to the wrong home in the 1500 block of Boulderwoods Drive, near Bouldercrest Road, Cedric Alexander, director of public safety, said late Monday. Officers weren’t given a street address, but went to a home matching the description given by a 911 caller, Alexander said.
The officers went around to the backyard of the gray and brick home, and noticed the screen and back door were unlocked. Considering the time of night and the fact that the neighborhood has had a number of break-ins recently, the officers had every reason to believe that a burglary was in progress. The officers identified themselves when they entered the back of the house, and within minutes of entering the home, shots were fired.
The officer, shot in the thigh, was in critical condition and underwent emergency surgery at Grady Memorial Hospital. The homeowner was also being treated for injuries, but his condition was not known, Alexander said. At least one officer discharged his gun, but no information was released on whether the homeowner also had a gun.
