Police in Richmond continue to search for two suspects wanted in a Thursday morning home invasion.

Police say residents told them someone knocked on the door of their apartment in the 400 block of Turpin Drive around 3:00 a.m. When they opened the door, two men rushed inside. One suspect was armed with a sawed-off shotgun, the other with a wooden club. The men ordered the seven people inside the apartment into the living room and demanded money. Two victims were struck on the head. The two suspects took three cell phones, two packs of cigarettes and $80 in cash and then fled on foot.

Two victims were treated at Pattie A. Clay Regional Medical Center for what police called minor injuries.

Investigators say the two suspect's faces were partially obscured by masks. Witnesses say robbers were two white males.
