By one witness account, a number of dark colored vans and black SUV's closed in on the homes from several different direction. Within seconds dozens of men wearing olive drab jumpsuits with no visible identification stormed into the three homes in a simultaneous attack.
Witnesses reported hearing automatic gun fire and loud explosions often associated with "flash bang" grenades.

During the raid the area was blocked off by unmarked police cars and the para-military style operation was over in less than an hour. At no time were any CMPD marked units visible, nor was Charlotte Fire or Medic involved.

On Monday morning, only muddy Carolina red clay where the homes once stood remained along with a small Bobcat and a Komatsu (excavator) Track-Hoe.

This afternoon a lone unmarked car with blacked out windows stood guard in the area.
Unrelated side note: Mecklenburg County Sheriff's Office has a request before the Mecklenburg County Commissioners tomorrow night, to purchase $130,000.00 worth of tactical body armor.

I bet the hood rats went running.
Operation Thug Round Up.
Shot to kill and bulldoze the buildings no bodies to claim just give it all to solid waste to clean up.
I know personally and in real life three people who witnessed the events described above.
Sounds like DEA style of clean up.
Was that a training exercise?
My guess....DEA raid on meth labs & houses too contaminated for cleaning.
Cedar are you saying that MCSO was able to put 50+ deputies in combat style dress and storm a couple of houses?
If so maybe the real question is why is the MCSO stock piling weapons? What war are they training for?
Wasn't there a time when MSCO deputies were not even armed?
If so how did this happen?
Cedar you and your ilk need to have your meds increased.
This was actually a bank repo... Using MP style swat teams...
Whatever this was is not the point.
Is this the type of activity we want in our Country is the point and the question?
At what point do we say enough? Or are we so far into the police state that there is no going back?
We don't have to be attacked by North Korea, we're already there.
Bank of America just taking back a habitat for humanity house. Shot first bag em up later destroy the evidence.
I wasn't there, but if I were a betting man, I'd say that those 50+ pro-force shooters were contractors working with the secret service (US Dept of the Treasury). The houses were in foreclosure and would have been demolished anyway, but if the guys who were counterfeiting money in one of the houses had paid their mortgage on time, they would probably still be in operation. They were more than likely being watched by the secret service and the foreclosure simply forced their hand. Why do so many people take the time to post comments and remain anonymous?
I meant to put my name there.

Not many reliable witnesses, however, because the agents used "The Flashy Thing."
Not meth lab. You would not be setting off flash bangs at a meth lab.
