Warrant issued for Warren man in shooting incident

WARREN
Police have issued an arrest warrant for Terrell Allen, 22, of Commerce Avenue Northwest, brother of a recent shooting victim, in connection with gunfire that injured three men Tuesday evening on Burton Street Southeast.
Allen is wanted for felonious assault with a firearm and is “considered armed and dangerous,” according to a police-department bulletin. He had not been apprehended as of Wednesday afternoon.
Allen and all three of the men he’s accused of shooting at 6 p.m. Tuesday at 2732 Burton St. SE have lengthy criminal records. Allen was ordered into rehabilitation in May after being convicted on a drug charge.
A police report identified the three men hit by the gunfire: Raymond G. Harrison III, 24, of West Market Street; Anthony Harris, 30, of Columbus and Warren; and Amadd Jones, 27, of 2728 Burton Street.
Police say Harrison is in critical condition at St. Elizabeth Health Center. The other two are in stable condition, though one of them was transferred from ValleyCare Trumbull Memorial to a Cleveland hospital for surgery.
Because Allen is the brother of Jeremiah Allen, 21, who was shot early Sunday outside an apartment complex on Peace Avenue Northwest, police are investigating whether the two incidents are related.
In that incident, witnesses described young men on foot chasing a vehicle down the street and firing. Jeremiah Allen was hit while standing in the neighborhood talking to someone and was not in the vehicle, police said.
Police also are not ruling out the possibility that Tuesday’s and Sunday’s gunfire incidents are related to the Sept. 7 gunbattle on West Market Street between people in two vehicles traveling in front of the Boogie Down Club that injured one person, said Detective Nick Carney.
Trumbull County Common Pleas Court records indicate that Harrison was sentenced to 11 months in prison in July 2012 after a cocaine-possession conviction and got a 12-month prison sentence that same month in relation to three other drug charges.
Harris got eight months in prison in July 2013 on drug charges, eight months in prison in March 2011 on a drug charge and 18 months in prison in 2008 on weapon and assault offenses. Jones was sentenced to three years in prison in May 2009 on various drug charges.
All three were found shot in the side yard 2747 Burton, which is just west of Central Parkway and Youngstown Road.
Police said the shots that hit the three men Tuesday were fired from a house across the street.
