Bowling Green Police were dispatched Monday to a roommate fight in which one subject was found wounded in the 400 block of Clough Street.

Dispatch advised Wesley Dolittle III was the subject with the weapons, according to the Bowling Green Police Division report.

When officers arrived around 2:28 p.m., Dolittle was found standing outside. He claimed to have gone at the alleged victim with a baseball bat out of self-defense, according to the report.

Officers then spoke to the injured person, who was on the dining room floor bleeding from his right hand and holding his left leg saying it was broken. Officers checked the person’s hand and observed a laceration to his right ring finger that was not bleeding profusely. Officers tried to raise his arm but he was holding his leg in pain, according to the report.

BG EMS arrived and tended to the alleged victim’s injuries, finding one pack of marijuana flour and two envelopes of money in the process.

The alleged victim told police that Dolittle got upset and hit him in the leg with the baseball bat, then struck him with the sword.

The victim was transported to St. Vincent’s Hospital in Toledo.

Dolittle, 43, Bowling Green, was arrested for felonious assault and was taken to jail.
