Answer to Question 1

Answer to Question 2

The law generally requires that police officers announce their presence and state their authority. Doing so is important for several reasons: (1) it helps avoid needless destruction of property; (2) it helps prevent violence resulting from unnecessary surprise; and (3) it helps preserve people's dignity and privacy.
