Suspicious shopper had gun, drugs


YOUNGSTOWN — Police found a loaded gun on a man in an East Side store on Wednesday.

Donni Feagin, 32, of Youngstown, was taken to the Mahoning County jail on charges of carrying a concealed weapon, being a felon in possession of a firearm and possession of marijuana.

He is expected to be arraigned in municipal court Friday.

Reports said officer Nick Bailey and his police dog were on patrol about 3:15 p.m. on McGuffey Road near Jacobs Road when Bailey was flagged down and told that there was a person in the nearby Dollar General on McGuffey Road who appeared to be lurking in the store.

Bailey went to the store and when he went to talk to Feagin, Feagin turned around to shield part of his body. Bailey searched him and found a .22-caliber revolver loaded with seven rounds, reports said.

Feagin also had a bag of marijuana, reports said.

Reports said the store has been recently robbed.
