Police: SWAT team had to slam door more than 100 times with battering ram to get into Mattapan house for search

Police say SWAT team members armed with a search warrant were forced to repeatedly ram the front door at 19 Rosewood St. this morning because the occupants did such a good job fortifying the door against them.

But after ramming the door more than 100 times, they got in and arrested Dana Hill, 38, on charges of unlawful possession of a firearm, unlawful possession of ammunition and using/wearing body armor during the commission of a felony, police say, adding the officers found an AR-style firearm, one revolver and one semi-automatic handgun, both found loaded and cocked, sitting in a laundry pile, ammunition, two Kevlar vests and one gas mask.

Innocent, etc.
