Robots assist police after barricaded suspect kills officer
After fatally shooting O'Rourke, Coley refused to surrender or communicate with police.
Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard said sending officers back to the upstairs of the home was something he was "unwilling to do without knowing (Coley's) status."
The Sheriff's Department instead sent in robots safely operated from a distance by law enforcers using remote controls.
"Our particular robot was on one of the doors and that's how they knew (Coley) was still in the house and alive, because he opened fire on the robot," Collins said.

burning the house would have also been a viable option

delusional, illogical liberal minority, and rabidly
promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which
holds forth the proposition that it is entirely
possible to pick up a turd by the clean end!'

That's an FBI tactic.
