US-CRIME-POLICE

Cheye Calvo speaks during an interview with Agence France-Presse on August 15, 2014 in Berwyn Heights, Maryland. Calvo, the mayor of Berwyn Heights, had his home mistakenly raided by a county SWAT team and two of his dogs shot. Calvo, 43, is closely following the news from the Missouri town of Ferguson, where a white police officer shot an unarmed black teenager to death, triggering days of race-tinged violence. He is especially concerned about the initial mass deployment of armored cars and heavily armed police. The images of police in combat gear armed like soldiers on a battle field and aiming rifles at protesters shocked Americans and brought back memories for Calvo of the night of July 29, 2008, when the SWAT team burst into his house.
