CLEVELAND — A Cuyahoga County grand jury indicted a Cleveland man for a month-long crime spree that included six aggravated robberies.
LaDon Moore, 40, was indicted on the following charges:
- Six counts of Aggravated Robbery
- One count of Kidnapping
- One count of Extortion
- One count of Robbery
- One count of Having Weapons Under Disability
“This one man terrorized and inflicted fear throughout the Mount Pleasant neighborhood for a month,” said Prosecutor Michael C. O’Malley. “Innocent people, including women going to church, were targeted, held at gunpoint, and robbed. Hopefully, as we take the first steps towards justice today, the community can rest a little easier knowing this violent offender has been removed from their streets.”
Investigators were able to link Moore to the robberies after utilizing surveillance footage and witness information. It was also revealed that Moore lived in close proximity to all six of the robberies.
Authorities obtained a search warrant to Moore's residence and found various articles of clothing that were worn during the robberies. Personal items belonging to various victims was also found during the search.
When Moore was arrested on Thursday, June 29, he had a handgun in his possession according to Cleveland police.
Moore awaits an arraignment date at the Cuyahoga County Justice Center.
