The victim said he was assaulted by three men who entered his home. He said the suspects knocked and he was "immediately assaulted," authorities said.
The victim and the other resident said one of the suspects was armed with a pistol in his waistband, police said. The suspects allegedly referred to the victim by name. They fled the scene in a sedan, possibly a BMW.
They were described as "tall" Black males in their late teens or early 20s.
