Altoona police say a man was shot after Randolph and two other men showed up at a home on the 1000 block of Sixth Avenue the morning of Sunday, Jan. 16. According to the charges, one of the other two men, who were both wearing masks, pointed a gun at the victim’s face when he opened the door.

They demanded to know where “the sack” was and after a struggle, the man was shot in the thigh. Another man in the house came downstairs with another gun and yelled for the three to get out of his house before 9-1-1 was called for the man who was shot.
