EAST SIDE KILLING Trial set for man accused in shooting

Darrin Lamont Moore is in the county jail on a $1 million bond.
YOUNGSTOWN -- Trial is scheduled June 2 for a 19-year-old Willis Avenue man who faces multiple charges, including aggravated murder.
Darrin Lamont Moore pleaded innocent during his arraignment Tuesday in Mahoning County Common Pleas Court. Magistrate Eugene Fehr continued Moore's bond at $1 million. He is in the county jail while he awaits trial. His case is assigned to Judge Maureen A. Cronin.
Prosecutors say Moore killed 29-year-old Robert Smith of Eliot Lane in December 2003. Smith was found lying on North Garland Avenue on the city's East Side, shot in the back and lower torso.
Moore is charged with aggravated murder, aggravated robbery and receiving stolen property in Smith's shooting.
He also faces a charge of failure to obey a police order because authorities say he refused to stop his car when police tried to pull him over in January. Police said Moore led them on a chase through the city's East Side before he was arrested. He was driving a stolen car at the time, they said.
Moore also faces unrelated charges of kidnapping, gross sexual imposition, felonious assault, receiving stolen property, aggravated robbery and escape. Those charges stem from an 18-year-old Lisbon woman's allegation that Moore accosted her in the parking lot of an apartment complex on Mathews Road in Boardman in September 2003.
