Nick was transported by St.

Paul Fire Paramedics fairly quickly down to Regents Hospital, which is one of the level one trauma centers in St.

Paul.

What was the crime scene like?

What did you discover in the house?

There was a pair of jeans laying in the foyer area, and then the shotgun was laying there in the ground as well, right inside the doorway.

The shotgun belongs to Nick.

It's his hunting gun.

It's a double barrel, and he kept it in the closet of his bedroom for safety.

We also saw the pellets that were in the doorframe as well as the door itself from when Nick was shot by the intruder.

Officers also photographed what looked like tool marks on the front door along the frame as if someone were trying to jimmy it open.

When a call comes in of somebody that's been shot at six in the morning in an April, spring morning, we have a massive police response.

Officers and investigators begin canvassing the whole area to talk to anybody we can.

We begin looking for cameras on houses or people out walking their dogs.

We're looking for any sign of anything of someone running away.

Who would do this to this young couple?

Maybe they had an interaction with the intruder, maybe met them the day before.

The one person that police need to talk to is the lone survivor, the one witness, Nick Furcus.

But then I started hearing, filling with our doorknob.

There was an intruder trying to burglarize the home.
