An East Toledo man was indicted yesterday by a Lucas County grand jury for breaking the arm of his 5-week-old son.

John Hardy, 21, of Stratton Street was indicted on one count of endangering children.

Police said the infant, Anthony Hardy, was in Mr. Hardy's care on Oct. 14 when he suffered a fracture to his left arm. The baby was taken to Bay Park Community Hospital in Oregon and later transferred to Toledo Hospital, where the injury was diagnosed.
