Man, son attacked inside Canfield home

CANFIELD — Police are searching for the two men who entered a Canfield residence with the presumed motive of burglary and assaulted the homeowner and stabbed his son at about 4:35 a.m. Sunday.

When a Mahoning County Sheriff’s deputy responded to a 911 burglary call at a Bay Hill Drive home, he found the 17-year-old son standing in the driveway bleeding from his side.

The teen told the officer that he was in the back yard talking to his mother when he heard his 64-year-old father yelling and saw him being pushed into a glass trophy case by a man wearing dark clothing, gloves and a ski mask. When the son went inside to help his father, another male wearing a ski mask attacked and stabbed him, according to police reports.

The assailants fled, one out of the front door and one out of the back.
