It's officer Dylan. You're not a police officer. You're are a Nazi. An arrest warrant led police to the door of Daniel Homegrren, who was absent from court for domestic violence charges. However, instead of cooperating, he responded with extreme and hateful rhetoric. If you want war, I will fight to the end with you. In light of the suspect's defiance, police decided to use tear gas to force him out of the room. But the real nightmare was just beginning. 911. Police can breach. Shots fired. I'm hit. I've been shot. I've been shot. Get me out of here. Tear gas was fired into the room, but in response came a barrage of real bullets, taking down an officer on the spot. The situation was now beyond the control of the police. The SWAT team was immediately deployed to surround the entire house and if necessary, they were prepared to choose the most ruthless option to ensure everyone's safety. Ultimately, what would be the fate of the officer who was just shot in the apartment and the suspect, Daniel? Let's join Cops Camera US to follow the most intense developments right after this. At about 9:30 p.m. on January 24, 2023, police arrived at a house on Cart Street, Whitebear, Minnesota to find Daniel Lauren Homegrren, 33 years old. He had been absent from court for domestic violence charges. Can I speak to Dan? I just have a quick question for him about an old case we need to clarify. Is something wrong? No, nothing at all, ma'am. The woman speaking with the police is Daniel's biological mother named Vicki. He said he's Officer Chic. He wants to talk to you for a bit. He didn't say what you did. The boy says he hasn't done anything wrong. Is there a problem? What's going on? He has an arrest warrant that we are trying to handle. So I police attempted to talk to Daniel about the family related incident, but he stated that he did not want to communicate directly with the police. Hey Dan, do you have a warrant? That's why they're here. That's a court warrant. You're not allowed to stay in the house. Hey Dan, I'm Officer Chic. I don't care. You have a warrant and you need to deal with this. So right now you are under arrest. Hey, you have to cuff me first. So, just go outside. Right now, the boy hasn't done anything wrong. He's doing just fine. Yes. And that's why I'm here. I understand his medical history, and I just want to clarify everything. And I don't need to open the door because you re in my house illegally. You don't even know I'm here. That's a court warrant. Dan, you have a felony arrest warrant. What's the felony arrest warrant for? You're not even allowed to open the door. You can't open the door. You are illegally trespassing in my home. I'm not illegally trespassing in yours. Don't shout like that, Danny. I'm not opening the door. Pepper spray. I don't have any. Mom understands. She gets that. But now they're inside the house. You can't do anything, right? And you can't do anything. So, let them take you away. No. I told you not to open the door, Vicki. You're killing me, Danny. I will bail you out. You're killing me. You're killing me for being strange. Kill that. You can't open the door. What do you mean by kill you? You've killed me. What trouble are you in, Danny? Danny, that's not your mom's fault, is it? You shouldn't be inside my house. You don't have a warrant for my arrest. You're right. It doesn't matter. You shouldn't be in this house. Why did you come into my house? The mother asks why Daniel is in trouble. The police explain that he has a warrant for not appearing in court. Both sides argue fiercely. Daniel asserts that the police illegally entered, taking advantage of his mother, who is suffering from schizophrenia, continuously accusing them of being pedophiles. The police deny it and try to convince him to cooperate to resolve the situation. He has a warrant, so he has to go to jail to resolve this because it hasn't been dealt with. It's a felony arrest warrant. It's a first-degree felony arrest warrant. I mean, he has to go to jail. That's how it is. He has to deal with this. But guess what? To tell the truth, if she doesn't open the door, he will leave because that's not a valid arrest warrant. It is a valid arrest warrant. Actually, it is valid because it is in effect and being executed right now. But the problem is it isn't. It's not like breaking into someone's home illegally. You're going around back and breaking the door. You're going to leave, right? The police assert that Daniel has a felony arrest warrant and demand he cooperate. Daniel continuously refuses, accusing the police of illegally entering his home and exploiting his mother with the most severe insults. Tensions escalate as he declares he's ready to fight if the police force him. As Daniel refuses to come out of the bedroom, Sergeant Eric Gabo appears with a canister of pepper spray. At the same time, Sergeant Sandell steps out holding a shield, ready to charge into this chaos. Is everyone ready? But that's all in the past now. They've come in here already. >> Stop it. >> No. You stay there. >> Nope. >> No. No. No. No. Mom, I don't want you here today. I will go in. I will raise my son. No. No. You will not go in. I don't want you to go in. Yes, I will. I will go in. Don't. I don't want to get hurt. I will not be harmed. The boy will never harm me. No, I will not allow you in there. The boy will not harm me. He is my son. I need you to stay right there. You cannot come in here. You have broken the law. Look at this tall guy. Can you stand there? I'm watching you, Daniel. Daniel continued to barricade himself, loudly, challenging and asserting that the police were entering illegally. His mother's son tried to intervene to avoid violent conflict. The tension rose as he declared he was ready to die. Meanwhile, the police forces outside were preparing for action. Do you have a gun? Do you have a taser? Do you have a taser or a regular gun? Please, please don't harm the boy. You all, Daniel, come out. Hey, I will defend myself. Are you ready for this? The boy is defending himself. Please don't don't harm my son. I am defending myself. Any aggressive action will be met with this. Please. Now get out of the apartment and come outside. I will defend myself with everything I have. >> 917. >> 9171. The police can proceed. Fire. Fire. I'm down. [Music] I'm [Applause] down. I'm hit, man. I'm hit, man. Give me Give me >> He shot my son. That was a pepper spray gun. Get out of here. There's gunfire. Get outside. Get outside. I need the door open. I need to get this damn door open. Get outside. Get outside. Get her out of here. Get outside. Get outside. Where is it? Where were you shot? Where are you? Where are you? 9.180. Need an ambulance. An officer has been shot down. Get him out with him. Amid the gunfire, teammates hurriedly pulled the injured officer out, administering first aid on the spot. The bullet pierced through the bulletproof vest, causing him intense pain, but he remained alert. Inside, Daniel was also injured in the abdomen and ankle, but still in pain. It hurts. It hurts. It hurts. Inside, Daniel was also injured in the abdomen and ankle, but still holding out. He said that the suspect was shot, but I can't confirm that. Get him out of here. Get him out of here. Get him out of here. Let's go. I'm taking my pants off, please. [Applause] Let's go, guys. What's going on? Go outside and put your hands up. No, no, no. He could shoot from there. I know. Inside your house. Inside your house. Is this what you wanted tonight? Where were you shot, Daniel? In the leg, the ankle. That bastard. You want to die, don't you? I'm ready. It's not worth it, man. I have a 40 caliber gun, sweetheart. You did that. You don't have to do this. Come out, man. It's not worth it. It's not worth it. Come out and put your hands up. I'm fine. You want this fight, don't you? He's still a threat. He said he was hit, but he's still ready to fight. He's not subdued yet, still armed. Officer Ryan Sheik was hit multiple times in the left leg, abdomen, and pelvis. His teammates immediately pulled him into the patrol car. They sped off to meet the ambulance on route to the hospital. How are you? Just hang in there. Come on, man. Close the door. Save him, please. Come on. Calm down, man. Over here. Wake up. Wake up. Just relax. Just breathe. We can do this. Yes, sir. I don't know about Let them know we are self- transporting. Is this the ambulance? Damn, they're shooting again. There's gunfire. Stop right here. Stop. Stop and turn on the lights. Turn on the lights. Let me out. Let us out. I'm trying to get you out of here. Let us go, man. Ryan Schik was taken into surgery and was lucky to survive. Meanwhile, at the apartment, Daniel was still barricaded, continuously threatening as the SWAT team surrounded. After the police deployed tear gas and chemical agents, Daniel immediately crawled out with both hands raised above his head. Upon searching inside, police seized a Smith and Wesson 9mm handgun. Daniel Homegrren was held at the Ramsay County Jail. initially facing first-degree attempted murder charges and four counts of using deadly force against a police officer. In US criminal law, these are all felonies at the most serious level which can lead to life imprisonment. However, in August 2023, a firstderee assault charge along with the entire domestic violence record was dropped. All charges were dismissed under a plea agreement. Accepting this plea deal usually arises from two legal factors. First, it reduces the risk of a jury trial. If the case goes to trial, the defendant must prove intent to commit murder beyond a reasonable doubt. This is inherently more difficult when the victim, officer Ryan Chic, is still alive and he had returned to work after 7 months. Second, it saves time and resources. A plea deal ensures the defendant receives a heavy sentence without the need for a lengthy trial while avoiding the possibility of the jury acquitting or sentencing lower. As a result, Daniel Homegrren received a 19-year sentence minus 213 days served. Under Minnesota's second time offender laws, inmates may be eligible for parole after serving 2/3 of their sentence around September 2025. The remaining time will be under community supervision. The shooting incident in Whitebear was not just a tense standoff between police and a suspect barricaded inside. It exposed the fragile boundaries between the laws enforcement power and the explosive reactions of a person losing control. Daniel Homegrren will spend nearly two decades behind bars while officer Ryan Chic, despite bearing real bullet wounds, has returned to duty. In America, a moment of gunfire can change a life forever, but the law remains the ultimate judgment. And in this game, the one who loses their reason almost always ends up the loser.
