YOUNGSTOWN — A man accused of two separate rapes in August was sentenced to 10 years in prison today in Mahoning County Common Pleas Court.

Matthew Dubose of Norwood and Catalina avenues, entered guilty pleas before Judge R. Scott Krichbaum to two counts of rape and single counts of aggravated robbery and aggravated burglary.

He is charged with raping a woman Aug. 18 and driving her to another city and leaving her there and breaking into a St. Louis Avenue home Aug. 28 and raping a woman there.
