Three men were arraigned at Albany Medical Center on criminal charges in connection with a robbery and shootout early Tuesday inside a home in the Woodlawn neighborhood.

Police said Pharoah Nisby, 22, allegedly forced his way into 10 Shirley Drive and shot two men, wounding one of them in the face and torso, and bit one of them on the cheek. One man returned fire, hitting Nisby in the arm and legs, police said. All three are expected to survive.

Authorities have said the two unnamed men are possible suspects in the sale of marijuana in the apartment.

Nisby faces numerous charges, including attempted murder, burglary, three counts of assault, robbery, two counts of criminal possession of a weapon and unlawful imprisonment, according to court documents.

Police have not released the names of or charges against the other two men, ages 20 and 22.

A fourth man, Daiqwan Malik Maddicks-Park, 20, is charged with felony tampering with physical evidence, misdemeanor criminal possession of a weapon and unlawful possession of marijuana, according to court papers.

The tampering charge alleges Maddicks-Park attempted to leave the home with a hidden .380 semiautomatic handgun after the shooting. He was expected to be arraigned Wednesday.

Nisby also was charged with felony weapons crimes in connection with a Feb. 20 shooting on Crane Street. The disposition of that case was not immediately available.

State records indicate he served time in prison for stabbing a man in 2012.
