Georgia police are searching for two suspects believed to be “armed and dangerous” after they were involved in a home invasion—an act that left a third suspect dead.

Investigators told the Gwinnett Daily Post that a man and woman were home last week when Antonio Leeks, 28, kicked in the front door and entered the residence with the two other suspects. The woman, a local business owner, grabbed a handgun and fatally shot Leeks. One of the other two invaders fired back as they fled the scene in a car. 

Police Corporal Deon Washington told reporters the two escaped suspects are black men between 20 and 30 years old, around six feet tall with slim builds and facial hair. Detectives also released footage of the two from home surveillance video in hopes someone could identify them, while Washington added they should be considered a “threat to the community.”
