The homeowner told police the two men said they were police and claimed they were at the home to serve a warrant.

[The homeowner] became suspicious, because, you know, they have a ring camera too, and the suspects were saying they had a warrant, but it was just two people and they’re masked up and no police cars, no lights or anything like that," said Lt. Khan with HPD.

At some point, police said the men shot at the homeowner through the door, prompting the homeowner to return fire.

The homeowner was not hurt in the gunfire, but the two men were both hit and pronounced dead at the scene.

    Maybe this could be a warning sign to those cops that they shouldn’t do that, or they might be shot.

    Oh, who am I kidding. That just means cops in ski masks will shoot first more often.

      Yeah, they want to turn the temperature up. If they can just start shooting brown people on sight, it’d make everything easier.
