Authorities say they are actively investigating a Columbia home invasion in which the resident shot a suspect who tried to break into his apartment, where police reported finding suspected drugs and weapons.

At 12:20 a.m. on Friday, officers responded to the 7600 block of Woodpark Lane in Columbia for an attempted home invasion and robbery, according to a statement from the Howard County Police Department. Two armed men whose faces were covered had kicked in the door of an apartment, at which point a man who lived there fired at the suspects, police said.

The suspects ran away, and police found one of them nearby with a gunshot wound that was not believed to be life-threatening, according to the report from the department. He was taken to a hospital for treatment, the report said. Police looked for the second suspect but could not find him, and authorities said Friday that he was still at large.

Inside the apartment, officials say they found "suspected drugs, firearms and cash." Police reported: "Appropriate charges are still being determined for the involved parties."
