UPDATE: Two injured after Monday night two-hour SWAT standoff

A man was hospitalized in critical condition and a woman sustained injuries in an incident Monday night that culminated in a standoff with police.

TOLEDO, Ohio — Editor's note: The following story has been updated to reflect new information made available in a Toledo police report Tuesday morning. 

Toledo police responded to a residence on the 1300 block of Greenwood Avenue in east Toledo Monday night regarding a person shot. 

Crews arrived on the scene and located a 50-year-old man who crews determined sustained at least one gunshot wound to the chest. Police said they also located a 55-year-old woman complaining of chest pain caused during a physical altercation. 

Both victims said they were injured by a person whose name police did not provide, as the suspect has not been charged. The victims told police the suspect was still in the upper level of the apartment. 

In response, police established a perimeter around the building and SWAT and negotiators were called to the scene. Police were engaged in the standoff beginning around 9 p.m.

Flashbangs were heard detonating at the scene just after 10:30 p.m. After attempting to contact persons within the building for a period of time, SWAT cleared the residence and no suspect was found. Police began to disperse just after 11 p.m. and the standoff ended. 

The 50-year-old was taken to the hospital suffering from "major trauma" and was in critical condition at the time of the report. Police said the second victim sustained possible broken ribs, but is expected to be okay. 

If you have information, you can call or text Crime Stoppers at 419-255-1111. You can remain anonymous and may be eligible for a reward.
