TULSA, OK -- A pair of shootings late Tuesday and early Wednesday keep Tulsa Police busy. 

A man was shot early Wednesday morning in a home invasion. The incident occurred in the 500 block of East 54th Place North in Tulsa shortly after 1 a.m.

Tulsa Police say a group of people were outside the home, when a green Dodge pickup drove up and three men in ski masks got out and forced the group of men inside a home.

A 29-year-old man was shot in the arm during the assault. He was taken to a Tulsa hospital. There is no word on his condition.

Police are calling this a robbery, but are not saying what the men took.

In an unrelated incident, police are investigating an overnight home invasion of a home on Easton just west of Harvard.

Officers were dispatched to the home at about 2:30 a.m.

When they arrived on scene, officers learned 3 men, two wearing dark clothing and one white clothing, had forced their way into the home.

The residents told Tulsa Police they were not hurt by the intruders who all wore gloves and were armed with handguns, took cash, jewelry and a lap top computer.

And late Tuesday evening, Tulsa Police say an 18-year-old man was shot in the kidney during an incident in the 1800 block of East Virgin.

The victim was taken to a Tulsa hospital. Police say his injuries didn't appear to be life-threatening.

At this point, Tulsa Police don't believe any of the incidents are related.
