NEW YORK: At least a dozen people were wounded on Saturday in Toledo, Ohio, as two shooters traded gunfire, police said.
Two of the wounded are in critical condition, police said at a news conference. The victims ranged in age from 14 to 61, police said.
The incident involved two individuals shooting at each other, police said. “I’ve been to a lot of scenes, but this is way over the top,” police Lieutenant Dan Gerken told reporters at a press conference.
A search remains underway for any suspects in what police Deputy Chief Joseph Heffernan called a “pretty active” investigation. “We do have some evidence and we’re following up on some leads,” Heffernan said.Investigators are talking to multiple people and reviewing camera footage, Gerken said. George Kral, director of public safety for Toledo, made a public plea for cell phone footage that can help the police find the suspects.
