TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) — A man fired at a police officer in the parking lot of a northwest Toledo apartment complex and was shot and wounded by the officer, police said.

Toledo police said officers responded to the Secor Woods Apartments near the Michigan state line shortly before 8:30 a.m. Saturday after a report of a person screaming in the parking lot.

The officer arrived and began speaking to the man in question, but he fired at the officer and into a police vehicle, and the officer, who was uninjured, returned fire, striking him, police said.

The man was taken to a hospital for treatment and his firearm was recovered, police said. There was no immediate word on his condition and his name wasn’t immediately released.
