try:
    # Python 3
    from urllib.request import urlopen
except ImportError:
    # Python 2
    from urllib2 import urlopen

results in file.py:X: error: Name 'urlopen' already defined

This looks like a special case of #1153. Currently you can add a # type: ignore on the line which mypy complains about.

Closing as a dupe. Any follow-up discussion can go to #1153.
