Man arrested at health-care facility

Officers were called to Belmont Guardian Health Care, 1735 Belmont Ave., about 3:20 a.m. for a report of a broken window and when they arrived they found 26-year-old Shawn Rush of Youngstown inside covered in blood.

He was then taken to the Mahoning County jail on charges of vandalism and burglary.
