DEKALB, Ga., Dec. 30 (UPI) -- Police said gunmen remained at large after killing two people during the robbery of a home in Georgia.

A teenage male and a 35-year-old man were killed in Dekalb, while a third man, estimated to be 40 years old, was hospitalized in critical condition, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported Sunday. The victims' names were not publicly released.

The robbery occurred Saturday night when family members allowed the suspects to enter the apartment, police said. The suspects knew the family, which had been running a candy store from the apartment, police said.

Two other family members, including a child, were in the apartment during the shooting but were unharmed.
