A SWAT team raids the wrong home in Lawrenceburg, Ind., now the homeowner wants some answers. Police said they were led to the Village Apartments on the trail of fugitive Sean Deaton. Convinced he was inside apartment 407G, the Lawrenceburg SWAT unit surrounded the building. It looked like my apartment was on fire. The smoke was just blowing out of my windows," Kayla Irwin, the tenant of 407G said.
Irwin, a single mother of two, said she is unable to live in her apartment and didn’t even know the the man sought by police, who said Deaton had left the apartment before officers arrived. Now, she said, she has been left with the mess and no apology. "It's all covered with poison. I don't know where to start over with two kids," said Irwin. "How do you start with replacing the items that your kids have had since the day they were born?" She said one of her pet guinea pigs was also killed during the incident. Irwin said she appealed to the police, but hasn’t gotten anywhere. "They basically just said, sorry for the inconvenience. Go ahead and clean it up. Clean up our mess," Irwin said. Until the incident is remedied, the manager of the apartment complex said he has put Irwin, her kids and her pets in another apartment.
