SHARON, Pa. - A Youngstown man who was paroled just four months ago is behind bars again for a shooting in Sharon.

Police say U.S. Marshals have arrested 28-year-old Juwaun Brown for allegedly shooting a man on the 300 block of Alderman Avenue shortly before 11 p.m. Monday.

Investigators have not released the name of the victim, only saying he is from Youngstown and his wound is not life-threatening.

Brown, who was arrested in Ohio early Tuesday afternoon, faces charges of Attempted Homicide, Aggravated Assault, Possessing a Prohibited Firearm, and five counts of Recklessly Endangering Another Person.

According to online records, Brown was paroled in March after serving a three-year prison term for Felonious Assault in Ohio.
