The mayor of Elyria has ordered a probe after the woman who lives at the home accused police of raiding the wrong house, an incident that she said left her baby with severe burns.

The mayor of Elyria, Ohio, has ordered an investigation after a woman alleged that police officers who raided her home had the wrong address and deployed flash-bang devices that sent her 1-year-old to the hospital with burns.

Police have offered a conflicting account of what happened Jan. 10, saying in a statement Friday that they had executed a search warrant at the correct address and the child did not "sustain any apparent, visible injuries."

Courtney Price says audio from her Ring camera proves them wrong. In a clip shared exclusively with NBC News on Tuesday, someone can be heard saying "it's the wrong house." It is not clear who made the remark because the camera fell to the ground and went dark after police deployed the flash-bang devices.

American police put a child in the hospital, but refuse to acknowledge it had been hurt in any way, shape or form.

Typical of those murderous thugs.

Apparently we now live in a world where toddler abuse is more acceptable than basic reproductive health care....

If only this was the first time.... The exact same thing happened just a few years ago.

Are they really "new questions"?

I detest low-life criminals, but I’ll take an honest heroin dealer next door any day over the hideous travesty that the police forces have become.

Fuck all cops. The US needs a complete overhaul of our judicial system.

Fucking drench every one of those corrupt pigs who dare to call themselves police with oil and set them on fire. Maybe that will send a message to NOT. FUCK. WITH. KIDS. I am done negotiating, it's time I started fucking dealing punches to the corrupt bureaucracy. All of you start fucking demanding these asshole's heads, the heads of Trump and Putin and Xi Xinpeng and Trudeau and the government of Iran and both the Hamas and the Israeli government, or you are not fucking human in my eyes, you are a monster who feeds off the blood of children. DO. NOT. HURT. KIDS. END OF STORY.
