Local News Warren man arrested for alleged parking deck assault By BRANDON CANTWELL November 10, 2026 2 min read James Moon Trending WARREN — A $1 million bond was set for a Warren man accused of assaulting a local parking deck employee. James Moon, 29, pleaded not guilty to a charge of felonious assault in front of Warren Municipal Court Judge Patricia Knepp Monday morning. According to a police report, a Warren officer was called back to the station Friday afternoon for a man who had walked into the lobby and said he was assaulted. The man, a parking deck employee, told officers that he was closing the parking deck when a man assaulted him, with the officer noting the victim was bleeding from his mouth, had a laceration on the back of his head and his left cheek was severely swollen, the report states. Officers checked out the parking deck and found a large pool of blood and two teeth on the ground, right in front of the guard shack. Police watched the surveillance video, noting that a man jumped over the parking deck’s south wall and approached the victim, knocked him to the ground, punched him 15 times and kicked him. The report states the man was white, approximately six feet tall and 250 pounds, wearing a brown jacket and sweatshirt, baseball hat and black shoes. The assailant ran southbound after the incident. Officers were later called to the Urban Tap on East Market Street for a man causing a disturbance, who was detained in the establishment’s back parking lot. An officer pointed out that the man, identified as Moon, was the same one who had assaulted the parking deck employee. Officers later learned that Moon was the same suspect from another disturbance at Bushwick, which is just a flew blocks east of the police station, noting him to be highly intoxicated. An officer went to St. Joseph Warren Hospital to speak with the parking deck employee, who said Moon jumped the wall near his car and asked for his name, telling him that wasn’t his name, leading to Moon’s alleged assault. Moon remained at the Trumbull County jail Monday evening, and is set to return to court Friday, court records show.
