ORIGINAL STORY: TWO PEOPLE SHOT IN HOME INVASION AT STUDENT APARTMENTS IN DURHAM

Officers responded to a call at Level 51 Ten off-campus apartments shortly before 11 p.m. on April 11. Three people were inside an apartment when two men, one armed with a gun, knocked on the door and entered the apartment. The suspects fired several shots and fled.

A 22-year-old woman was treated for a graze gunshot wound to her hand. A 21-year-old man suffered a gunshot wound to his calf and a 20-year-old man injured his hands when he jumped out of a third-story window. All three were taken to the hospital for treatment of injuries that did not appear to be life-threatening.

The incident was not random, according to investigators. The case remains under investigation.
