Two men were killed in Hickory late Wednesday during a botched home invasion, authorities said.
Shortly after 11 p.m., the men, who were dressed in black and were wearing masks, forced their way into a home on 33rd Avenue in Northeast Hickory and were shot and killed by the house's owner, said Maj. Coy Reid at the Catawba County Sheriff's Office.
Reid would not name the owner and said that authorities Thursday morning were still trying to identify the men, who appeared to be in their late teens or early 20s.
The owner has not been charged in the killings, Reid said, and the case has been given to the District Attorney's Office.
