Scotty McCreery

Singer and North Carolina State University singer Scotty McCreery was visiting friends at a North Carolina apartment Monday morning (May 5) when three gunmen broke in and held up those inside the apartment, reports WRAL.

The break-in occurred before 2 a.m. when the three gunmen forced entry into the apartment at Wolftech Lane in Raleigh, N.C. Those inside, including McCreery, were not hurt, but some were robbed of cell phones and wallets. Police are not certain if the apartment was specifically targeted by the gunmen.
