WARREN -- A former fugitive is back in Ohio after being captured in Illinois by U.S. Marshals after he fled charges in the brutal July beating of a mother and her 18-month-old child in Warren.
Tyrell Williams, 26, has been placed in the Lorain Correctional Institution after waiving his rights to an extradition hearing in an Illinois courtroom.
No details were given surrounding his arrest, but he reportedly was captured with drugs on him.
Williams will face child endangering and domestic violence charges for the alleged incident that took place at a West Market Street home in Warren Township.
Marshals apprehended Williams in August in Dolton, Illinois.
Following a parole violation hearing Oct. 2, Williams will be brought back to Trumbull County for additional charges of assault to be heard in Warren Municipal Court, and escape charges in Trumbull County Common Pleas Court.
A police report states officers spoke with the woman at a home in the 1800 block of Sixth Street in July, but the alleged assault captured on video took place at a home on West Market Street in Warren Township.
The woman said Williams had come to the residence to break up with her, but she alleged he began punching her after she told him to "get your stuff and leave." Police noted in their report that the child had visible markings on the right side of the face along with a slightly bloody lip.
The child's grandmother handed over additional footage depicting the assault on the woman and child.
Footage shows Williams repeatedly punching and kicking the child, at times striking the child directly in the face and kicking him across the room, police said.
He then turns toward the mother, slapping and punching her as she attempted to take cover on the couch. At one point, Williams' body slammed the woman while she held the child, police said.
The police report states that officers saw two large contusions on her forehead, swelling on her eyes and nose, and a small cut on the nose.
