Looks like it's spreading.
I live in Hurst, this is exactly why I don't want my kids answering the door even if they think it's us.

I thought it strange as well that all three aglommorated near my front door. But then I also think of how uneducated I was prior on recognizing threats and how ignorant I was on how to not portray myself as a threat, especially at an officer.

The car started right up without the cop providing a jump. I have it on camera. Honestly I was a little peeved that no ID was requested by the officer.
It's easy for us to critique you because we were not in the situation at that time. You can go to sleep tonight knowing what you did saved your family. There are plenty of people that will just open the door with no hesitation no matter what time of day.

One thing to also note, if the officer pulled up behind the car he has more information that you think. He's got a detailed description of the 3 people that knocked on the door as well as their license plate number.

Re: Knock on door at midnight

This is exactly why I tell my children to not open the door if we are home. If my wife and I happen to leave I tell them to not lock our top deadbolt lock as it does not have a keyhole on the opposite side of the door. Great teaching situation. I agree with the majority "you don't want what I can give you," is unnecessary.
