Not-guilty plea to robbery

WARREN

Darrell K. Moore, 35, of Ravenna and Kibler Toot Road in Lordstown, pleaded not guilty in Warren Municipal Court Tuesday to aggravated robbery after he was accused of showing a gun to an employee of Home Depot on state Route 46 in Howland on Friday and walking out of the store with stolen tools.

A not-guilty plea was entered for Moore, and he is being held in the county jail without eligibility to make bond.

Moore, who just got out of prison last year on an earlier robbery charge, told a Home Depot worker, “I don’t want to hurt anyone, but I need this stuff bad and I’m going to walk out of here with it.” He also said he needed drugs.

Moore got into the passenger side of a car, and left. Moore was arrested on an aggravated-robbery warrant Monday night at the Howland Giant Eagle.

Moore was sentenced to four years in prison in early 2015 for robbing the Certified gas station, 3840 Elm Road in Howland.
