Video shows the men kicking the door multiple times. Richmond said he realized what was going on just as the men got the door open.
"When they came in, I pushed them," Richmond said. "When I pushed them, I closed the screen door first. Then, they were trying to come back in. I closed this main door and I looked through the peep hole, and at that point, I saw the young man with the black hoodie. He had a gun up like this at the door."
Video then shows the men running away from the home.
Richmond said he doesn't have any problems with anyone. He said he lives at the home with his girlfriend and has no idea why he was targeted.
Anyone who recognizes the men in the video is asked to call Ypsilanti police at 734-483-9510 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-SPEAK-UP to remain anonymous.
