Investigators have arrest warrants for Raymont Dillard and Frederick Shields -- two of three suspects in the home invasion on Amanda Avenue Wednesday night.

Investigators said the other victim was approached from behind, and the metal barrel of a pistol was pressed to the back of his head, at which point he was forced into the dining room, where his hands were tied with a dog leash.
Police said the suspects ransacked the apartment.
Investigators said the victims identified two of the three suspects involved because they were familiar with them.
According to court documents, both of the men pleaded guilty to robbery a few years ago.
Police said this wasn't a random crime and the victims were familiar with two of the three suspects.
