Former Warren Township police officer jailed for burglary, abduction

WARREN — A former Warren Township police officer remained behind bars in the Trumbull County jail today after his conviction Thursday on two felony charges related to offenses he committed against a former girlfriend.

Anthony Tvaroch, 37, of Carson Salt Springs Road, Newton Township, was found guilty of burglary and abduction Thursday night in Trumbull County Common Pleas Court after a jury trial.

Judge Andrew Logan ordered Tvaroch to be taken to the jail without eligibility to make bond. The judge will sentence Tvaroch to up to 15 years in prison in about five weeks.

Police said Tvaroch forced his way into a former girlfriend’s Anderson Drive home in Howland Township July 25, 2010, then grabbed her by the neck, kicked her and beat her.
