Grand jury indicts 52

Staff report

WARREN -- A man who in 2017 was given two years in prison on gun charges is named in a superceding indictment charging him with improperly handling firearms in a motor vehicle, tampering with evidence, illegal conveyance of drugs and aggravated possession of drugs with specification for forfeiture.

Tre'Vaughn L. Walker, 28, of Stewart Drive NW, Warren, the brother of a man who died in an October 2013 police-involved shooting on Risher Road SW, is scheduled for arraignment on the new indictment by the Trumbull County grand jury next week before Common Pleas Judge W. Wyatt McKay.

The court record shows he originally was charged in October with three felonies in a case tied to an Aug. 28, 2020, Warren police traffic stop.

His brothers are Taemarr Walker, who died in the Risher Road shooting; and Tashawn L. Walker, who is serving a 17-year prison sentence after pleading guilty in 2015 to charges connected to the shooting death of a man at the Sunoco gas station on West Market Street. That fatal shooting occurred one week after Taemarr Walker's death.

In 2017, Tre'Vaughn Walker was sentenced to two years in prison on charges of tampering with evidence and improperly handling firearms in a vehicle and a probation violation for a 2015 weapons conviction.
