A Toledo man accused of assaulting and robbing an 84-year-old man was indicted Friday on a murder charge.
Carlton Hunter, 45, of the 1700 block of North Erie Street, was indicted by a Lucas County grand jury for murder, aggravated robbery, and felonious assault as well as specifications that allege he is a repeat violent offender.
Hunter is being held in the Lucas County jail in lieu of $500,000 bond. He is accused of assaulting Allen Burrow, found unconscious about 12:30 a.m. Aug. 4 in the parking lot of Northgate Apartments, 610 Stickney Ave.
Mr. Burrow was taken to Mercy Health St. Vincent Medical Center and later transferred to Hospice of Northwest Ohio in Perrysburg, where he died on Wednesday, according to the Wood County Coroner’s Office. The cause and manner of his death are pending.
Witnesses told police an assailant struck Mr. Burrow in the back of the head and knocked him to the ground before taking his wallet.
