Six are arraigned in trespassing case

STRUTHERS -- Six people were arraigned in municipal court on criminal trespassing charges after police caught them at Hamilton Lake hours after the pay-to-fish lake had closed.
Kourtney E. Harris, 20, of Pennsylvania Avenue, Youngstown; James R. Lawson, 21, of Logan Avenue, Youngstown; Michelle R. Common, 21, of Diagonal Road, Salem; Angela J. Kaminski, 19, of Pennsylvania Avenue, Youngstown; and Andres T. Dimacale, 21, of Academy Street, Salem, all pleaded no contest Wednesday and were found guilty by Judge James R. Lanzo. They will be sentenced Aug. 7.
Saleem I. Khan, 21, of Ohio Avenue, Youngstown, entered an innocent plea.. Judge Lanzo set his trial for July 24.
Police arrested the group around 11:40 p.m. Tuesday after a neighbor reported seeing several people at the lake's bait shop.
Apparently, one of the women drove her car around a fence to gain access to the lake, police reports say. The group then boarded an aluminum boat that belonged to the lake.
Five of the six individuals were released on $100 cash bonds after being arrested. Lawson was held on three active warrants.
