Man charged in Struthers home invasion gets 11 years in prison

YOUNGSTOWN — One of three Struthers men charged in an April 9 home-invasion burglary has been sentenced to 11 years in prison.

Timothy Conzett, 25, of Snyder Avenue, drew the sentence this afternoon from Judge Shirley J. Christian of Mahoning County Common Pleas Court.

Conzett had earlier pleaded guilty to felonious assault with a firearm specification and to burglary in the home invasion and to three counts of felonious assault in another case.

A co-defendant in the home invasion, Marc L. Cooper, 20 of Deer Creek Drive, is to be sentenced Wednesday by Judge Christian.

Cooper pleaded guilty to felonious assault with a firearm specification and to burglary in the home invasion.

A third defendant in the home invasion, Colin Anzevino, 21, of Snyder Avenue, who had pleaded guilty Sept. 14 to aggravated burglary with a firearm specification and had been awaiting sentencing, hanged himself Oct. 4 in the county jail.

The prosecution had recommended an eight-year prison term for Anzevino.

Police said the trio broke into an Oakland Boulevard home in Struthers, taking 17 guns and the homeowner’s prescription medication.

The homeowner suffered head injuries and a stab wound to his left arm.
