A 20-year-old man was hospitalized after a shooting occurred in Willoughby on Monday afternoon, according to Willoughby Police.
Just before 4 p.m., Willoughby officers and other agencies responded to the 1300 block of Fox Run Drive for a report of a shooting and located the 20-year-old, police said.
“My daughter called me being hysterical. She goes mom, she goes don’t go home,” said Angelina Hughes. “It’s never been like this. This is kind of scary. It makes me want to move out.”
