Jamaur D. Brown, 30, of Second Street was charged with being a felon in possession of a firearm and two felony drug-possession charges Thursday night after a domestic disturbance at a North Park Avenue home.

Ariana D. Shaver, 25, of Martin Street Southwest was charged with misdemeanor domestic violence and two counts of felony drug possession in the incident.

Police responded to the incident at 10:03 p.m. and went to St. Joseph Health Center at 3:30 a.m. to transport Shaver to the Trumbull County jail. A police report does not say what type of injuries she had.
