Arrest warrant issued for Donora man who assaulted Monessen man and stole money, meds
An arrest warrant was issued for a Donora man who allegedly stole money and medication from a man after assaulting him at his home.
Monessen Police on Tuesday filed charges against Aaron P. Trilli, 31, of 14 Mellon Ave. before District Judge Joseph Dalfonso.
On Feb. 22, Edward Karol provided a written statement to police that he was allegedly assaulted on Feb. 20 by Trilli, who was staying at Karol’s residence to “clear his head.”
According to the affidavit of probable cause, Karol was lying on the couch in his home along Park Manor Drive in Monessen when he was kicked in the head and knocked out by Trilli.
Karol told police that when he came to, his house was trashed, $80 was missing from his wallet and his medications were gone.
Police photographed Karol’s head and face, which had signs of being struck by some type of object, and advised Karol to go to a hospital emergency room as he was visibly lethargic, dizzy and complaining of pain to his face and head.
Karol was joined at the police station by Zachary Glover, who told police he transported Trilli that day to and from Karol’s residence and observed Trilli trashing the apartment and going through a wallet that Glover assumed belonged to Trilli.
After Glover left Trilli, he was cleaning his car and found that his envelope for his trip to Florida that contained $800 was missing, and Trilli was the only other person in the vehicle.
An arrest warrant was issued for Trilli, who was charged with theft by unlawful taking, robbery, harassment, simple assault and recklessly endangering another person.
