WARREN  Warren Police arrested a man Saturday after he allegedly stabbed another man five times during an argument over a dog.

Investigating a reported stabbing at the Riverview Motel on Parkman Road NW Saturday afternoon, officers found the 54-year-old victim with five stab wounds to his chest, arm, and upper legs, according to a police report. The wounded man told officers the suspect, identified as Troy McGinnis, came to his room to argue about a dog they had exchanged money for.

The victim was transported by ambulance to St. Joseph Warren Hospital for treatment of injuries that police said appeared not to be life-threatening.

Acting on a tip, police found McGinnis crouching near a gas station behind the motel.

 The report states the knife appeared to have been recently cleaned and had an oily film on the blade.

McGinnis, who according to court records has a Campbell address, was taken to the Warren Police Department to speak with a detective before being booked into the Trumbull County Sheriff's Office jail on a charge of felonious assault. He was scheduled for arraignment in Warren Municipal Court on Monday.
