Southampton Town Police on Wednesday had yet to make any arrests in connection with a home invasion in Tuckahoe on Monday morning, in which one man was shot and another beaten.

While police said they don’t have any suspects in the case, they maintain that the house was targeted—but have not said why.

Two men who live in the house at 432 North Magee Street were injured, according to Lieutenant Robert Pearce. One, a 21-year-old man, was shot twice in the abdomen and drove himself to Southampton Hospital just before 10 a.m. A second man, who is 28 years old, was beaten, suffering bruises and cuts to his head and face, and was driven to the hospital by a third man who had been staying at the house, police said. Detective Sergeant Randy Hintze said the third man, who police believe had been staying at the house for a day or two, remained upstairs during the confrontation. The two victims did not provide an explanation for why they did not go to the hospital together, the authorities said.

According to police, two men wearing red bandanas over their faces, and one holding a semi-automatic pistol, tried to enter the residence through the front door at about 9:30 a.m. The 21-year-old tried to hold the men off at the door, when he was shot twice in the abdomen. The 28-year-old resident then confronted the intruders and was assaulted, suffering lacerations and contusions to his face and head, police said. The two robbers then ransacked several rooms in the home before escaping, police said.

Police said they did not know how the attackers fled, nor have they recovered the gun that was used in the shooting. Police would not say what evidence, if any, was recovered, but the bullets, along with any other evidence, were to be sent to the Suffolk County Crime Lab for analysis.

The victims told police they did not know the men who attacked them and that some items were taken from the house, Det. Sgt. Hintze said. He said police were still investigating what had been taken and would not divulge what was said to missing or its estimated value.

Officers at the scene Monday could be heard talking about cameras in the house, and how they were not certain if they were functioning. “There was some indication there may have been video surveillance on the premises,” Det. Sgt. Hintze elaborated on Tuesday. He declined to offer more detail.

The gunshot victim signed himself out of the hospital Monday afternoon or evening, according to Det. Sgt. Hintze. The other man was treated for his injuries and released, police said. Police are withholding their identities, citing the ongoing investigation.

Det. Sgt. Hintze said police turned the house, which they said was being rented by the two men, back to the pair at around 10 p.m. on Monday.

Two men outside the hospital, who would not offer their names but identified themselves as family members, would not discuss the specifics of the shooting Monday morning.

While officers were investigating the crime scene on Monday, a woman driving north on North Magee Street stopped her car and a man stepped out of the vehicle and tried to head toward the house, until he was stopped by police. The man said he was a cousin of one of the victims. Police said no one could come or go, and the pair drove away without incident.

No one was at the home when police arrived just after 10 a.m. Police then cordoned off the house, a modest, two-story home less than a mile north of Tuckahoe School—which was closed that day in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day—and next to a church, the Padgett Temple.

Police were observed laying out numerous yellow numbered evidence markers. A New York State Police K-9 unit was also on the scene. There were two cars in the driveway: a Ford Fusion with North Carolina license plates, and another snow-covered vehicle. There was talk among officers at the scene of the front door being forced open.

Two dogs were removed from the house by the Town Police Animal Control Unit as a precaution.

Police said there appeared to be no link between Monday’s incident and a home invasion in Eastport on January 7. “We have been in contact with the Suffolk County Police detectives investigating that case, and we’ve compared notes and don’t believe that it’s related at this time,” Det. Sgt. Hintze said.

When the initial call of a gunshot-wound victim at the hospital came in that morning, Southampton Village Police responded to the hospital and a house on Powell Avenue in the village. Village Police Chief William Wilson Jr. said on Monday that Village Police knew the shooting victim formerly lived at that home. After an interview with the victims revealed that the crime had not taken place in the village, the investigation was turned over to Town Police.
