District 5 is investigating a home invasion that left a 22-year-old man shot around 6 p.m. on October 14 in the 6000 block of Maple.
A preliminary investigation revealed the 22-year-old man was privately conveyed to the hospital suffering from multiple gunshot wounds after two unknown males broke into the residence. The 22-year-old man was unable to provide a complete statement due to being medicated. However, a 39-year-old woman who was present during the incident said she was in her bedroom when she heard someone kick in their backdoor. The woman then discovered the 22-year-old man was shot after observing two suspects fleeing from the residence.
The 22-year-old was listed in critical but stable condition. The woman was not hurt. The investigation is ongoing.
