A Toledo man was hurt yesterday when he was shot in the chest with a shotgun in West Toledo, police said.

William Moore of 708 West Sylvania Ave. was taken to Toledo Hospital, police said, but a hospital spokesman said she had no information on a patient by his name.

Police found the wounded victim on the ground at 1520 Ottawa Drive when they responded to a call of a person shot about 3 a.m. He was by his vehicle when an unknown, light-skinned black male in a white shirt and red shorts shot him and fled on foot, police said.
