Article is long, but here's a brief taking from it:
A Hofstra University sorority girl has been shot dead after a masked, armed intruder forced his way into the home she shared with her twin sister and college friends.
The victim, identified by friends as 21-year-old Andrea Rebello, was at the home on Long Island, New York with two other girls - including her sister Jessica - and a male when the tragedy occurred at 2.30am on Friday.
The suspect, who has not been named, was also shot dead at the home during gunfire from police.
The man had knocked on the door of the home on California Avenue - which is just a block from the university campus - at 2.20am and then forced his way inside, police said on Friday morning.
The suspect, who was not a student at the university, was armed with a handgun and wearing a ski mask. He then headed to the second floor and held the residents hostage, according to reports.
He allowed one of the women to leave the home to withdraw money from an ATM and she called 911, Nassau County Deputy Inspector Kenneth Lack told NBC New York.
She told the 911 dispatcher that the intruder had a silver handgun pointed at her friend's head in a second-floor bedroom, NBC reported. She added that there were multiple hostages.
The dispatcher passed the information to police and less than a minute later, Nassau County police officers reached the home.
