   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  16-4519
   U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Davenport   
   [PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Loken and Gruender, Circuit Judges] 
   Criminal case - Criminal law. The government appeals a suppression order. 
   Held: the officers' warrantless entry to defendant's apartment was 
   justified by a legitimate and objectively reasonable concern for the 
   safety of the officers and a third person present in the apartment; once 
   inside the apartment, the exigencies of the situation justified the 
   officers' action in ordering defendant to stand and turn around; when they 
   saw a gun on his hip, the officers acted reasonably in seizing it; if 
   officers have an objectively reasonable basis that some immediate action 
   is required to preserve the safety of others or themselves, they do not 
   also need probably cause; the district court's suppression is reversed.
