CANFIELD

Canfield police arrested a man Monday who was indicted Thursday on nine counts of felony gross sexual imposition.

City police officials arrested Darryl R. Hoon Sr., 43, of Janet Drive, and he was booked into the Mahoning County jail Monday night. His case will be in the Mahoning County Common Pleas court.

According to a police report, an investigation into Hoon began on June 16 after a 36-year old West Virginia man called the Ohio State Highway Patrol about an assault.

He was transferred to the Canfield police and told police his two young daughters had been touched by Hoon, who had married their mother. The 36-year-old caller was divorced from his wife in July 2008 but has visitation rights.

When the children were visiting him in West Virginia, they said they had been kissed on the mouth and touched by Hoon. So, the man filed a restraining order in West Virginia courts for the children not be with or near Hoon.
