No one was injured in a home invasion Wednesday in the 700 block of Fotis Drive, DeKalb police said.

At about 11 p.m., two people inside the apartment answered a knock at the door, at which point two men with bandanas covering their face pushed their way into the apartment and pulled out a handgun, said DeKalb Police Lt. Gary Spangler. The men then took property from the apartment and fled the scene on foot running in an unknown direction, Spangler said.

Spangler couldn’t comment on the property taken.

The suspects are described as two black males, about 6-feet-tall with medium builds. One of the suspects wore a black hooded sweatshirt, and the other wore a gray hooded sweatshirt.

Police are following some leads in the investigation but have no suspects at this time, Spangler said.
