The shooting, or saying he wasn't home? Seems like the shooting was pretty justified given they were actively trying to break down his door.
The gamble was shooting through the door and possibly hitting someone in the apartment across the way.
Hopefully that cholo got perforated and nobody else.
No need to use racial terms
Might depend on the area but neither I nor any other Hispanic or Latino I know see cholo as a racial insult or slur (granted I'm a tiny sample size). It's more of a descriptor than anything in my experience.
