Michael Harrington, 20, who gave addresses on West LaClede Avenue in Youngstown and South Feederle Drive in Warren, was sentenced to an indefinite prison term of four to six years Monday before Judge Cynthia Rice of Trumbull County Common Pleas Court after pleading guilty to a first-degree aggravated robbery and two counts of second-degree robbery charges.

Harrington was charged with three separate incidents investigated by Warren police detectives in September 2023, prosecutors stated.

One incident occurred in the 1500 block of Roman Street where a man on a bicycle robbed another man, 31, of his backpack.

In the other incidents, Harrington was charged with using box cutters to rob a woman of his cellphone and then he took another woman’s purse. Judge Rice ordered he pay restitution totaling $500.
