According to police, the intruder demanded several items from the victims.

Officers said one woman claimed she was assaulted during the incident and was treated at an area hospital. A second woman also reported minor injuries.

TRENDING NOW:

\McCoy’s attorney, Jacoby Hudson, said his client has been in Miami for the past several days and had nothing to do with the home invasion incident.

Hudson told Petchenik that McCoy had tried to evict his ex-girlfriend from the home, but she would not leave.

Hudson said McCoy filed charges against the woman at one point, but felt bad that she was jailed and dropped them. He claims the woman then tried to extort McCoy.

The attorney said McCoy renewed the eviction petition last week and had cameras put in the house, but the woman took them down and is now claiming she was injured in a home invasion, accusing McCoy of domestic violence.

Court documents show McCoy's ex-girlfriend was slated to be in court Tuesday for an eviction hearing.

Investigators told Petchenik that they never told any media that they were investigating McCoy for domestic violence.

The Buffalo Bills released a brief statement: “We have spoken to LeSean and have been in contact with the National Football League. We will continue to gather information.”
