A2: Crime

Channel 7 Action News reports on Wednesday that a manhunt is under way for 32-year-old Jerome Powell, Jr., who also goes by the name Rome Azar. He’s wanted for assault and kidnapping in an incident that occurred last weekend on West Summit: “In a bizarre twist, when police arrived Sunday at the home where Rome was staying, they discovered a 17-year-old man tied up in the basement. Police say he was an acquaintance of the man they’re now looking for.” [Source]
