Duane Peoples, 55, was shot in his abdomen and left leg at 11:10 p.m. He was taken to Mercy St. Vincent Medical Center for treatment; his condition was not available.

According to a Toledo police report, Mr. Peoples told police a woman he knows only as “Stella” asked him for a ride to Fulton and Islington streets. Once they arrived, two young men approached and started shooting.
