Frank H. White, 53, who listed addresses on North Feederle Avenue Southeast and Milton Street Southeast, was arraigned Wednesday in municipal court on two counts of felonious assault.
He is accused of assaulting a man and woman in separate incidents early Tuesday. Not-guilty pleas were entered, and he remains in the Trumbull County jail in lieu of $100,000 bond.
Police, who were called at 4:15 a.m., found a 40-year-old male victim in his bed in an apartment on South Feederle Avenue with a gaping wound to his head. He said he also had been hit in his arm, leg and back, according to the police report. He said he awoke to find a man standing over him who then struck him several times with an object, which was later found to be a board.
The board was found with blood on it at the back of the apartment on North Feederle Avenue Southeast, where White was also found. The male victim was taken to Trumbull Regional Medical Center for treatment.
He gave police the name of a woman who knows the suspect, helping police locate her and White in the North Feederle Avenue apartment.
Police forced entry into the apartment containing White and the woman after a witness said the woman had also been assaulted. Police took White into custody.
The 41-year-old woman had a severe cut to the side of her head and was unable to stand up, police said. She also was taken to the hospital for treatment.
