1. “"(1) The police must have reasonable grounds to believe that there is an emergency and an immediate need for their assistance for the protection of life. "(2) The emergency must be a true emergency—the officer's good faith belief alone is insufficient. "(3) The search must not be primarily motivated by an intent to arrest or to seize evidence. "(4) The officer must reasonably suspect that the area or place to be searched is associated with the emergency and that, by making a warrantless entry, the officer will discover something that will alleviate the emergency."”
