HURON, Ohio — Matthew Fluty, 13, and his friend Dale Long, 15, were preparing to go bird hunting about 11:30 a.m. Tuesday at young Fluty’s house in Berlin Township when Dale discharged a pump-action shotgun he was trying to clear.
The shot struck the Fluty youth in the back, Sheriff Sigsworth said.
Young Fluty was treated by emergency personnel at the scene and flown to Mercy St. Vincent Medical Center.
