Two put ‘bounty’ on man’s head

YOUNGSTOWN — A Nielson Avenue man, 20, told police Saturday that two men told him they had put a $2,000 “bounty” on his head and were going to shoot at his house.

The victim said one of them posted a message on social media regarding a break-in at a home and offered a $2,000 reward for anyone with information.

The two men also called him, accusing him of the break-in, the victim said. His home has been hit by gunfire in the past because of disputes, police said.
