A tragic misunderstanding if so.
However, ONCE AGAIN, it does strike me that if this had happened in the UK, she would NOT have been carrying a lethal firearm. She would have shouted or screamed or said "Who the **** are you, get out!!", MAYBE she might have thrown something at him, and then they would have both realised the mistake and probably have had a good laugh about it and told the story for years to come. Instead, she was able to put a bullet in him in seconds before anyone had time to think.
Which also makes me realise, in the story above where me and my friends went to the wrong house and started trying to get in / shouting at the windows... in a large number of US states... we might well have been ****ing shot .

Yeah totally agree. Once again guns and shoot first ask questions later mentality that's caused this. It's actually worse because she's a Police Officer too, she should be trained not to just fire her gun like that
