The shooting happened at a home on Oak Water Drive in the Holly Oaks area, just east of Regency.

There were six people inside the home watching a movie when they heard someone at the front door.

"Not even two seconds later, the door is getting kicked in and someone's yelling, 'Get on the ground, get on the ground, shut up,'" said one of the men inside the home, who did not want to be identified. "By the time I jump to the floor, my life flashes beneath my eyes. I hear a bunch of gunshots. I don't know who's shooting, and then silence."

He said they jumped to the ground and remained there for about one minute.

"I look up and there's a man on the ground and everyone else is on the ground doing the same thing I am, slowly looking up. To my amazement, my best friend Tommy saved our lives," said the witness.

The man named Tommy lived at the home and grabbed his 9mm from his bedroom when the intruders broke in.

The witness said he only saw two intruders but supposedly there were three. The robbery suspect who died -- later identified as 24-year-old Aaron Antwan Harris (pictured, right from 2011 booking photo) -- was transported to the Medical Examiner's Office. Harris was arrested in 2011 on a charge of driving without a license. He was also convicted in 2006 of burglary and sentenced to 10 years of probation.

Police were searching for the two remaining suspects Thursday morning.

The witness said there have been several burglaries in the area recently, and he wasn't surprised the home invasion occurred.

"There was a burglary right there. My car was supposedly almost broken in to. You can see marks on my car where someone took a crowbar or something," the witness said.

Another neighbor said her family's motorcycle was stolen on Saturday but it was recovered nearby.

"Just on Saturday, they found it up the street thrown in the bushes. They hotwired it," said Carol Powers. "I have infrared cameras and usually have them facing out to the street, but since the bike was stolen, now I have them facing the vehicles just to be safe."

Powers said there were some other break-ins down the street about one year ago, and she's often concerned about people passing through the neighborhood.

"I have seven grandchildren and they're usually out there playing," she said. "So we get worried about strangers in the neighborhood but usually it's real quiet around here, a real nice neighborhood.
