1 dead in New Haven home invasion

NEW HAVEN, Conn. -- New Haven police say one man has died in an apparent late-night home invasion in the city.

Police responded to reports of a man shot in a home on Bassett Street just after 10 p.m. on Thursday.

Upon arrival they found 23-year-old Mitchell Dubey suffering from a gunshot wound to the chest. He was taken to a city hospital where he was pronounced dead. Dubey lived at the home.

Police say a masked man knocked on the door of the residence before opening fire.

There was no immediate word on arrests, but police say it does not appear to be a random act of violence.
