YOUNGSTOWN — Kobe Hayden, 27, was arraigned Wednesday afternoon in Youngstown Municipal Court on two counts of felonious assault in the Sunday evening shooting of a man who was with another person in a car hit by gunfire while traveling on Pyatt Street near downtown.

Magistrate Meghan Brundege set bond at $50,000 on each of the two felonious assault charges, and Hayden remained in the Mahoning County jail Thursday morning. He was booked into the jail earlier Wednesday.

A Youngstown police report states that an arrest warrant was issued for Hayden on Tuesday on the second-degree felonies. Youngstown police requested the assistance of the Northern Ohio Violent Fugitives Task Force to locate and arrest Hayden.

On Wednesday, the task force went to Hayden’s last known address on Myrtle Avenue in the city and made contact with him at the front door. He was taken into custody and then to jail.

Hayden returns for a preliminary hearing in the case at 9:45 a.m. Wednesday. If Hayden were to be convicted of the felonious assaults, he could get about 16 years in prison.

The charges stem from a 5:45 p.m. Sunday shooting. A man suffered two gunshot wounds when in a car traveling on Pyatt Street. The other person in the car said a black vehicle coming the other direction crossed in front of them. A light-skinned black man “exited or leaned from the vehicle and began firing shots at their vehicle,” the report states.

The witness said he or she heard four or five gunshots and then saw that the man in the car had been hit. They drove to St. Elizabeth Youngstown Hospital. The witness said he or she did not know what type of car the shooter was driving.

Hospital personnel said the victim suffered one gunshot wound of the arm and another to the arm pit area. It was not known whether that was from one gunshot or two.

An officer looked at the car the victims were using. It had a shattered driver’s side window and bullet holes in the head rest of the driver’s seat and one in the “seat back.” Officers spoke with the witness at the hospital.
