Ohio man expected to survive after 14 shots

Feb 27, 2014, 8:04 PM

CINCINNATI (AP) – Police say a Cincinnati man is expected to survive after being shot 14 times.

Hamilton County Municipal Court officials say bail was set at $1 million on Thursday for 32-year-old Antonio Weathington in the shooting of Ricardo Meadows. Weathington is charged with felonious assault for allegedly shooting Meadows multiple times.

Weathington’s attorney did not immediately return a call for comment Thursday.

The Cincinnati Enquirer (

The motive wasn’t clear.

Police said Thursday they had no additional information to release on the shooting or Meadows’ condition.
