2 Warren men charged with aggravated robbery

WARREN — Two 20-year-old Warren men have been charged with aggravated robbery, accused of robbing a 19-year-old Warren man of his cellphone and $40 as he walked along Parkman Road Northwest.

The victim said he knew the two men who approached him at 10:50 p.m. Monday in the 1400 block of Parkman, and they talked as they walked. Then one of them ordered the victim to empty his pockets as he felt the barrel of a gun in his back.

The suspects — Marcus P. Williams of Williamsburg Street Northwest and Jumal E. Rowe of Red Fox Run Northwest — then took the victim’s phone and cash from his pockets and ran.

The victim went to a nearby gas station and called 911, giving a description of the suspects and saying they had gone toward Robert Street Northwest.

A Trumbull County deputy sheriff took Williams and Rowe into custody in the 1200 block of Robert. Police found two non-working BB guns on the men.

Both were to be arraigned today in Warren Municipal Court.
