Victory (WSYR-TV) -- A 76-year-old Victory man was caught off-guard when police officers broke through his front door during a drug raid, only to find out they had the wrong house.
Fred Skinner was enjoying a piece of toast at his breakfast table when he says at least six police officers broke into his house on McNeely Road.
I had no idea what to do, Skinner said.
Skinner said he didn't hear anybody coming up to the house. He said the first noise he heard was the police smashing through his porch door, and then his front door, busting it into pieces.
For five minutes, Skinner's house was raided for drugs before police realized they had the wrong house by looking through his mail.

Yes, even if you have nothing to do with illegal drugs, you could still be a victim.
The Controlled Substances Act needs to be repealed.
