Poland police charge Youngstown man in auto chase event last week
POLAND — Township police charged Donteill Grant Jr., 18, of Ferndale Avenue, Youngstown, with complicity to auto theft after a car chase that spanned several communities and ended in the township last Thursday.
The chase began in Austintown after police responded to a call about a stolen vehicle there, the report said.
According to a police report, Grant and an unidentified minor are accused of stealing a red Honda Accord that was involved in the chase. Police said Grant and the minor crashed the vehicle near Western Reserve Road and state Route 170.
Grant was charged last month with assault and drug possession after an incident on Market Street and Ridgewood Drive in Boardman.
Grant has a preliminary hearing Nov. 14 in Mahoning County Area Court in Boardman on the assault and drug possession charges.
