A 22-year-old North Toledo man was in fair condition last night after being struck by a bullet outside a city bar early yesterday.

Jason Schmidt, 22, of Waldorf Drive, told police he was leaving The Field House bar, 135 South Byrne Rd., when he heard shooting. He tried to hide behind a car but was hit in his lower left leg.

Witnesses said numerous men were fighting in the parking lot before the shooting, then fled the scene in a gray Ford minivan.

Mr. Schmidt was taken to Medical College of Ohio Hospitals. No one has been arrested.
