An indictment was filed yesterday in Lucas County Common Pleas Court against two Toledo men for the shooting death last week of Jermain Middlebrooks near the O-Zone bar on Lagrange Street.

They are being held in the county jail in lieu of $500,000 bond each.

Mr. Middlebrooks, 32, of Moore Street was found lying on the sidewalk in front of the bar about 2:10 a.m. April 3 and died later in St. Vincent Mercy Medical Center.
