Confused by Wi-Fi, SWAT team raids wrong house, Teen was watching Food Network when door came down, stun grenade went off

— Stephanie Milan, 18, was relaxing in her family’s living room Thursday watching the Food Network when a heavily armed squad of Evansville police officers arrived on the front porch.

Dressed in full protective gear, police broke the storm door of the home at 616 East Powell Ave. — the Milans’ front door was already open on the hot summer day. They also broke a front window. They tossed a flashbang stun grenade into the living room that made a deafening blast. A short distance away, a local television crew’s cameras were rolling. The police had invited the station to videotape the forced entry of the residence.

Stephanie Milan said she managed to remain calm because she knew her family hadn’t done anything wrong. Still, she was stunned and confused.

After speaking to Milan and her grandmother, Louise, police determined those inside the house had nothing to do with their investigation.

Police were executing a search warrant for computer equipment, which they said was used to make anonymous and specific online threats against police and their families on the website topix.com.

“The front door was open. It’s not like anyone was in there hiding,” said Ira Milan, Stephanie's grandfather and owner of the property for many years. “To bring a whole SWAT team seems a little excessive.”

Ira Milan said the perpetrator of the threats likely used Stephanie’s Internet service connection from an outside location, which led police to the East Powell Avenue address.

But Police Chief Billy Bolin said, “We have no way of being able to tell that,” and the concerning Internet posts “definitely come back to that address.” MORE>>>

 (TLS-) Check out this MSN article on the same story. I love how the MSM whores have the suggestion to use WIFI dampening wallpaper or paint rather than tell you to use WPA2 encryption on your router with a jiberish password... I guess they couldn't have you actually securing your network then the cops or others couldn't get in lol!! Man sheeple are just being lead around by such duplicitous scumbags, it's sad.

More MSM propaganda that will be twisted around to make such 'illegal' actions acceptable and normal.
