From a press release, TAG, the Trumbull, Ashtabula, Geauga law enforcement
task force, arrested Adel A. Yazidi in Bristol Township Friday on three
charges of attempted murder. Ashtabula County sheriff's deputies and TAG
officers later confiscated an SKS semiautomatic assault rifle from an
Ashtabula County property where Yazidi recently resided.
Indiana State Police in LaGrange County, Ind., advised the Trumbull County
911 center earlier that day to be on the look out for Yazidi, who was
suspected of being in the area. The suspect was listed as armed and
dangerous. Trumbull County Sheriff's Department searched the city of Warren
and Southington Township but didn't locate Yazidi.
Later information indicated the suspect could be in Ashtabl1la County. At
8:10 p.m., members of TAG spotted the suspect's vehicle in Ashtabula County
and trailed it to Bristol Township in Trumbull County. Officers from
Champion Police Department, Ashtabula and Trumbull county sheriffs'
deputies, and members of the task force stopped Yazidi and took him into
custody without incident.
A female resident at the Ashtabula County property where the assault rifle
was confiscated also was arrested and charged with obstruction related to
the case. Officers noted Yazidi's birth date did not match the date on his
driver’s license, which showed Sept. 11, of al1 dates. Other documents taken
during the arrest showed various spellings of his name, also. Yazidi, who
was born in Yemen, was wanted in Indiana on three charges of attempted
murder. Authorities there will pursue his extradition from Ohio back to
Indiana to face charges.
