Man with violent history involved in Warren standoff sentenced to prison
A man who was involved in a standoff in Warren and has a history of violent crimes has learned his fate in Court on Tuesday.
According to the Trumbull County Prosecutor's Office, 31-year-old Wayne Perry pled guilty to multiple charges including failure to comply with the order or signal of a police officer, assault on a police officer, resisting arrest and domestic violence.
He was handed consecutive sentences totaling 21 months in prison on these charges.
The charges stem from a series of incidents that occurred back in June of 2023 when Perry struck his live-in girlfriend and then fled from police on a motorcycle.
From there, the event evolved into a standoff at Forest and Vine Avenue where Perry got into an altercation with an officer biting him in the calf and thigh before fleeing into a home.
Police reports from April of 2022 revealed that this was not Perry's first violent offense, with previous reports describing incidents of him attacking his ex-girlfriend.
Judge Andrew Logan stated the consecutive sentences were necessary in order to protect the public.
