Was Marine killed for living in the wrong neighborhood?

SWAT officers go to the home of a veteran Marine to search the house for drugs with a "narcotics conspiracy search warrant" but found nothing.
Authorities tell us three other neighborhood homes were targeted Thursday, all tied to a narcotics conspiracy.
but this Marine came home from work, went to sleep and was woken up by screams, smashing glass and bullets. Did they know anything about this veteran or his family? Did they have any clue if he was involved with drugs or if he just lived in the wrong neighborhood? It looks like they didn't know very much at all.

TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN9-TV) - A smashed window and a barrage of bullet holes might be the type of scene a battle-hardened marine finds in a war zone; not the Tucson home he shares with his two children and wife, "I saw this guy pointing me at the window. So, I got scared. And, I got like, ‘Please don't shoot, I have a baby. I put my baby (down). (And I) put bag in window. And, I yell ‘Jose! Jose! Wake up!" explained wife Vanessa Guerena.

Husband Jose had just come home from working at the mine. His wife Vanessa said he had just slept two hours, only to wake up to chaos in his house. It was Pima County SWAT executing a narcotics conspiracy search warrant.

SWAT gunned Jose down with 71-rounds fired in just about 7-seconds; officials say they did not expect Vanessa to be home with four year old son Joel, who has questions like so many others, "The only thing he asked me, "Mom, my dad a bad guy? They killed my dad! Police killed my dad? Why? What did my dad do?" explained Guerena.
