Woman jailed after domestic violence incident


BOARDMAN — A township woman faces multiple domestic-violence charges for an incident reported at a Shields Road residence Wednesday.

Brittany Robinson, 22, of Shields Road, is charged with one felony count of domestic violence and one misdemeanor count of the offense.

The charges stem from the allegation that Robinson threw rocks at a pregnant woman's stomach, and slapped, scratched and pushed another woman. The disputed started, Robinson told police, because she was hungry and the two women would not give her money for food.

Although she sustained an injury in the altercation, Robinson was determined to be the primary physical aggressor, according to a police report. She was taken to the Mahoning County jail, pending a court appearance.
