In a shocking incident in June 2023, a SWAT team in Denver mistakenly raided the wrong apartment, causing distress and trauma to a family. The incident unfolded when officers banged on the door of Kirsty Shelton's apartment, looking for a man who lived across the hall. Despite Shelton's mother informing them of the error, the officers proceeded to order Shelton and her daughter outside at gunpoint.
Upon entering the apartment, officers encountered Shelton's two young daughters in their bedroom. Body camera footage revealed that the girls were told they could play in the room while the officers searched for their grandmother, leading to the children's distress and screams.
