A Cape Coral man says he came home to find his front door busted in and his house ransacked after SWAT officers raided his home Tuesday morning.
Pictures show the SWAT truck parked in front of the home on Southeast 26th Terrace. Joel Moreno, who lives down the street, says about 20 officers jumped out and stormed the property.
“I heard something, but I don’t know if it was a gun or they were crashing through the door,” said Moreno.
When Gulf Coast News arrived on the scene, we saw investigators carrying out bins of evidence. Cape Coral police have not said what was inside the bins or whether the raid was part of a larger investigation.
The man who lives at the home, who didn’t want to be interviewed on camera, told Gulf Coast News he was served paperwork, but he "had no idea" why police searched his home. He believes officers "had the wrong address."
Cape Coral police haven’t said what they were searching for but confirmed the case is part of an active investigation. So far, no arrests have been made.
