HOWLAND -- A Warren man has been arraigned on burglary and felonious assault charges connected to a home invasion in the 7900 block of Anderson Avenue in Howland.
Mick Robinson, 40, of West Market Street, on Tuesday was given a $300,000 bond in the case by Municipal Judge Terry Ivanchak, who set an April 20 preliminary hearing before Judge Thomas Gysegem. Robinson is to have no contact with the victim.
Howland officers were dispatched to the Anderson Avenue home in reference to an unwanted person shortly before midnight Monday. The 21-year-old male resident told 911 dispatchers a man was threatening to kick the door in and he was counting down. Later, the intruder was at the back door, according to the report, and had forced his way into the home and was fighting with the resident.
When officers arrived, they heard someone making threats inside the home. An officer entered the back door with his Taser drawn, the report states, and saw the intruder holding the man down with his feet and hands. The officer managed to secure the intruder, identified as Robinson, in handcuffs as another officer stood by.
A woman in the home stated the intruder pushed the man to the ground, placing him in a headlock, and began slamming his head off the ground. He then used his boots to stomp on the man's head, the woman told police. The man also is accused of punching the resident about 20 times, the report states.
