CBS Local Sacramento (24 Oct 2011): Stockton Homeowner Wants Police To Fix Trashed House

Quote:

The San Jose Police Department stormed into a Stockton home searching for an accused killer, but they left without him, and left behind a complete mess.

...

Almost all of the windows are smashed in, there are holes in the wall, and there’s a layer of tear gas in the air so thick breathing it in makes you cough.

That is the home Rice came back to after the San Jose police held a fruitless 12-hour search on Saturday for Steve Ruiz, the man accused of killing a Hells Angels member at a funeral.

“He wasn’t here, he was never here and he wasn’t in the house,” she said.

I've often wondered who is expected to pay for damages that occur when the police are looking for someone. I see on TV how fugitaves hide on people's property, and the cops destroy things, trying to get to them.
