Woman saved as officer shoots suspect after high speed chase
A Tuesday shooting in Lawrence County left robbery suspect Shawn Aaron Hobel in a Youngstown hospital with multiple gunshot wounds after a police pursuit that began with Shenango Township officers attempting a traffic stop. A woman in the car clung to her rescuer as police removed her, after video showed her hands shaking during the exit. Hobel, 34, of Center Church Road, is in stable condition and will be arrested upon discharge, with further surgery planned to treat chest, abdomen, and arm injuries. The chase traversed Shenango Township, Zelienople, and multiple Lawrence County routes before ending in Youngstown where he was hospitalized.
