Aug 30, 2012, 6:27 AM | Updated: 6:36 am

Two men are being treated for gunshot wounds and Auburn police are searching for several suspects in a home invasion robbery.

Police say several suspects stormed the home just before midnight Wednesday and gunfire ensued.

Auburn police commander Jamie Sidell says the shooters and victims seem to know each other, but investigators are still trying to determine the connection.

“It was not a random act,” he says. “It sounds like there is some kind of acquaintance, but we’re not sure yet.”

Sidell says one of the victims ran for help and called 911 from a neighbor’s house. Both victims went to Harborview Medical Center for treatment.

One suspect was found nearby and arrested. Police are searching for one or two other suspects.
