This sounds like it was an assassination attempt. I'd move out of the country.

Interesting concept. Murder by cop. Get someone killed by sending the police to their place. Might actually be possible in the current way police deal with these kinds of situations...

It's not a "concept" for many years now. And not "might be possible". It's known as swatting and people have been killed already: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swatting

There’s no reason to use a large number of police to do that. Way too many people are involved and it’s too public.

It's literally the perfect way to do this. The large number of people account for each other. And since police murders in the US are so common, people would glaze right over the headline. An assassination with no witnesses would stir up more questions.
