Officer Zoller was fatally wounded by a shotgun blast fired from inside a house being raided where liquor was being illegally distilled. He died in a squad car while being driven to the hospital by fellow officers. The suspect was eventually apprehended and charged with murder.
A judge ordered that the murder charge be dismissed and the suspect released because there was not a search warrant and Officer Zoller failed to identify himself as a police officer.
