8:19 p.m. — Look Out Below!

A man fell from of a third-floor window Tuesday night after two gunmen came looking for him.

Here’s what happened, according to police spokesman Officer David Hartman (based on what people at the scene told cops):

Three people were in an upstairs apartment at 164 Edgewood Ave. Two opened the door to leave — and found three gunmen.

One of the apartment’s three occupants ran into a bedroom, another into the bathroom. A third was ordered to hand over money; they fled without getting any.

Meanwhile, the occupant in the bedroom was hanging onto the outside of the window. He lost his grip and fell.

Police arrived to find him bleeding from his head and apparently suffering a broken arm. He was transported to the emergency room at the Hospital of St. Raphael.

Detectives have begun investigating the incident, Hassett said Tuesday evening. He said the injured man is in his late 20s.
