According to police, a man reported that he interrupted two men trying to gain entry to his vehicle on Evergreen Road around 10:45 p.m. One of the men allegedly pointed a handgun before they fled the area on foot, one towards Riverside Avenue and the other towards Flanders Road.

Detectives canvassed the area but did not locate any of the suspects. The complainant allegedly told police there may have been two, three, four or five suspects but he did not get a good look at them and he never saw a handgun, but the men were pointing at him with their hands.
