New photos released Tuesday show the aftermath of the deadly shootout at a home in east Charlotte that killed four law enforcement officials and hurt five others.

The front of the house was destroyed during the encounter, with the front entrance and multiple windows blown out and covered with debris. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Chief Johnny Jennings said the suspect, 39-year-old Terry Clark Hughes Jr., opened fire on a group of officers who were there to serve warrants for his arrest.

    I bet the owner's homeowners insurance will have a thing or two to say about who is responsible for paying for the house.

    This is crazy.... really tore that house up and damaged other properties/cars. And the city doesn't pay for it. Quite messed up.
  • @cosmicenigmarevealed
    What happened. This is a one sided weird story. How did this happen?! What happened to the two other people that were in the house? The news half asz.
  • @ralphjessee2688
    All of the surrounding homes and yards destroyed in this action will also fall to the owners of those properties. The city and police will not pay a dime.

    Wow amazing insights here only on WCNC! Power team right here! Had no idea the destroyed house would now have to be repaired after being destroyed in a botched raid. Something for all of us to be thinking about during this tragic time of grieving the loss of four Marshalls gunned down in cold blood serving a warrant for "possession of firearm" without the states permission.

    End the cover up. Tell us who the two females in the house were and what they were doing there.
  • @JobyJoby-iw2wr
    How many casualties were the result of ‘friendly fire’?
  • @AK-sq1jl
    I was wondering what happens in this situation and who pays for all the damages and stuff since I saw on Polaris that the owners are actually Thomas and Cheryl Looney. Its messed up they have to become a victim in all this themselves. Now if they rented it directly to the convicted felon then they probably should assume some risk and do their homework but something tells me they more likely rented it out the woman living there and she let that guy stay with her. Our justice system is messed up.

    I'm sure we know what color the homeowner is. Who else receives notices from the code enforcement division to clean up debris in such a short length of time?
