Next Time, Check the Number on the House
Harvey and Lydia Borntrager had just pulled into their driveway, when a truck pulled up and several Goshen, Indiana, police officers raced out and knocked down their front door. Harvey asked what they were doing, and one officer said they had a search warrant. He asked Borntrager what the address was. He told him. The officer asked again. Borntrager repeated the answer. The officer then said they were at the wrong home. They were supposed to search the house next door.
