He opened the door to find two men. They began to fight. One of the men pistol-whipped the victim and then shot him, deputies said.
The victim was taken to Florida Hospital Tampa, where he later died, officials said.
The two unidentified suspects remained at large Tuesday morning.
Detectives were seeking a warrant to search the man's apartment early Tuesday.
No further information was immediately available.
