CLEVELAND, Ohio - A Michigan man shot his ex-girlfriend twice in Cleveland's Ohio City neighborhood after kidnapping her from her Bedford Heights apartment, according to police.

Jeremiah D. Little, 38, of Lansing, Michigan, is charged with felonious assault in Cleveland Municipal Court. A warrant was issued for his arrest Saturday. He is not in police custody.

Cleveland police Second District Commander Thomas Stacho gave an update on the Friday evening shooting via a Facebook post.

The incident happened about 5 p.m. on West 25th Street, in a shopping plaza across the street from the West Side Market, the update says.

The shooting wounded Little's 21-year-old ex-girlfriend, Cleveland police said. The woman was shot several times with a .45-caliber handgun, the warrant states.

Police initially reported that the woman was 25 years old.

Little is accused of kidnapping the Bedford Heights woman and forcing her to drive into Cleveland, Stacho wrote. She was shot while trying to escape from Little following "a violent assault."

Investigators say Little drove back into Michigan after the shooting took place. Cleveland police is working with Michigan authorities to find him.
