Parolee arrested on three counts of rape
YOUNGSTOWN — A 48-year-old Youngstown man on parole for less than four months is being held in the Mahoning County Jail on $2.5 million bail accused of raping and kidnapping two women.
Judge Robert Milich of Youngstown Municipal Court arraigned Anthony Carr on three counts of rape and two counts of kidnapping Friday. Two sexual acts were committed on one woman, resulting in two of the rape charges, said Sue Ellis, an officer with the city police department’s family investigative services unit. Carr’s preliminary hearing is set for June 25.
Also, two additional counts of kidnapping and a count each of rape and attempted rape are pending against Carr for similar incidents with two other women, Ellis said.
Charges on those two cases are being referred to the Mahoning County prosecutor “because he’s got enough charges now to keep him in jail,” Ellis said.
All of the cases are similar, she said.
