Two would-be robbers – both from Portland – were shot and wounded after they allegedly tried to break into a Springfield home early Friday morning, police officials said.

Someone called Springfield Police shortly before 2 a.m. to report that two men were trying to break down the front door of his home. Investigators said both suspects were armed.

The 911 called told police he was armed with his own weapon, and he fired several rounds at the suspects.

The suspects, identified as Gregory Robinson (33) and Christopher Alexander (24), both from Portland, drove off but were quickly located by patrol officers.
