A Baltimore man tells police he was accosted at gunpoint by two unknown men who forced him into a car, then shot him when he tried to escape in Glen Burnie.

Calvin Eugene Barrett, 60, from Baltimore City, suffered multiple gunshot wounds and is in stable condition at Maryland Shock Trauma, according to Anne Arundel County Police.
