WARREN

Christopher C. Moore, 41, of Streetsboro, will be arraigned today on charges of felonious assault, abduction and resisting arrest after purportedly causing serious injuries by kicking his girlfriend in the face Saturday night and later fleeing from police.

Warren Township police were called to ValleyCare Trumbull Memorial Hospital at 8:43 p.m. Saturday to speak to the woman, 28, of Windham, who had a bruised face, and her nose had multiple fractures, including a bone that had been pushed into her head, police said.

The woman said she and Moore had just come back from a “poker run” on his motorcycle and went to a house on Pangborn Road in Leavittsburg.

During an argument, Moore punched her in the back of the head, then while she was on the ground, he “kicked her in the face multiple times with his Harley riding boots. [The woman] stated everything went black and she couldn’t remember anything else,” a police report says.

Moore’s roommate later took the woman to Windham, where her father lives, and her father took her to the hospital.

Police arrested Moore after a call from someone at the Wagon Wheel bar on South Leavitt Road in Leavittsburg, where a witness saw Moore near the woods.

Warren Township called for help from Lordstown, Braceville and Champion police, the Trumbull County Sheriff’s Office and the Ohio State Highway Patrol.

A Weathersfield police officer and his police dog located Moore in the weeds, but Moore disobeyed commands to come out, so the dog bit Moore, who then was taken into custody.

Moore received stitches to his hand and then went to the Trumbull County jail, police said.
