HPD WARRANT: Informant didn't buy drugs from suspects killed in police shootout. Two people inside the house were killed when they shot at intruders who were police officers in a no- knock raid. Police officers who'd lied to obtain the no-knock warrant.

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- A confidential informant didn't buy drugs at the southeast Houston home where an investigation turned into a deadly shootout with police last month, according to a new search warrant.

That contradicts information used to get the no-knock search warrant, which said that a confidential informant bought heroin at the house the day before the drug raid. The raid happened on Jan. 28.

Cue the HPD union in 3... 2...
