Question

A police officer is dispatched to a domestic disturbance called in by a woman who told the dispatcher that her boyfriend was trying to beat her up with a baseball bat. The victim said that she had locked herself into the bathroom and was trapped. The officer who arrived at the scene cautiously approached the home and heard loud crashing, banging and screaming by both a man and a woman. What should the officer do?

Answer 1

Answer:The police should enter the home immediately without a warrant

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a life threatening situation in which this woman's life may be in a critical life or death situation , police are allowed to not show any warrant in situations where a life of a person is in grave danger.

A police will not even need to knock and wait because the man is probably not going to open the door for anyone.

He may need to beat down the door and enter in order to save the woman's life in time .
