BOWLING GREEN, Ohio — Police have identified the victim of a shooting that took place in Bowling Green Sunday morning.

Kobe Peterson, 21, was found suffering from a gunshot wound in the stomach by someone who then flagged down Bowling Green police near Main Street just after 2 a.m.

Upon arrival, police found several shell casings, but only one gunshot wound. 

Detectives say Peterson is now being treated at an area hospital and is currently in critical condition. His family has been notified.

Sunday's shooting comes less than a week after Bowling Green installed new cameras in the downtown area.

Detectives are looking at that footage but as of right now, BGPD do not know if the incident was caught on camera. 

"Detectives are still following up on leads as related to the shooting. I do know where the subject was coming from or what he might have attended earlier in the night," said Lt. Mancuso.

At this time, no suspects are in custody.

If you have any information, Bowling Green Police are asking you to call them at (419) 352-2571, or Wood County Crime Stoppers at (419) 352-0077.
