Media summary: Two officers shot burglary victim Antonio "No No" Hogans in a case of what police called mistaken identity. At about 7:30 p.m. police responded to a report of shots fired. The officers knocked at the door (which was apparently closed despite 911 calls saying that it had been kicked in) and announced themselves, but there was no answer. One of the officers said he looked around a corner and saw a muzzle flash and heard a gunshot. The officers then saw Hogans running from the gangway and shot him six times in the neck, side and back. Hogans died at a hospital. Investigators believed that whoever had kicked in the door fled and Hogans secured the door with a propped chair. It's believed that Hogans then used a door on the other side of the residence to exit through the basement and out to the gangway at which point he fired a shot at the officers investigating the call. According to police, Hogans apparently mistook the officers for intruders.
