After 19 hours trying to extract and arrest a fleeing suspect who had attempted to hide in the house, "the house was condemned by the local municipality immediately after the raid" and the city "refused to pay fair market value". Part of the city's defense in the subsequent suit is that: "the city wants the courts to reject the Takings Clause claim, arguing that the language only applies to "those whose property has been taken for public use". " So, law enforcement takes and uses the home's structure in an attempt to arrest someone, destroying it in the process, then the city claims that they didn't "take" the property in the first place. Wow. At least the home owner was not the victim of a SWAT raid initiated from a false report.
