DALLAS — Two men were killed and a third wounded early Wednesday in what Dallas police believe was a home invasion.

Three suspects, probably armed with an assault rifle and pistols, entered the home in the 3000 block of June Drive, near the intersection of Illinois Avenue and Westmoreland Road in Oak Cliff, police said. The suspects' faces were covered by bandanas, so a witness was not able to provide much of a description of the invaders, police said.

The four men inside the home were playing video games before the gunmen burst into the house, police said. Investigators said the suspects went quickly to a room in the back of the house and apparently did not find what they were looking for. At that point, police said, three of the occupants of the house were shot.

Two victims died, a third was wounded and a fourth man was not hurt. Police took that fourth victim into protective custody.

The crime was reported to police shortly before 4 a.m.

Police began a search for the suspects, but had found no one by early Wednesday.
