Brunswick police turned their weekly “Wanted Wednesday” spotlight on two men this week, naming Kenneth R. Barlow and Jose D. Caraballo in a social-media post. The department said both are wanted on fourth-degree felony charges: Barlow in connection with alleged grand theft and vandalism, and Caraballo for failing to appear on multiple non-support counts. Officers warned residents not to approach either man and to call in tips to law enforcement instead.
According to a Brunswick Division of Police Facebook post, Barlow (date of birth July 1, 1972) is wanted on one count of grand theft and one count of vandalism. Jose D. Caraballo (date of birth Sept. 26, 1974) is listed as wanted for failure to appear on three counts of non-support of dependents. The post identifies both men as fugitives from justice and describes the charges as fourth-degree felonies.
The Ohio Prosecuting Attorneys Association lists Brett McNabb as an investigator for Medina County, which ties the social-media “Wanted Wednesday” notice to the county prosecutor’s office. Under Ohio law, a fourth-degree felony can carry a prison term of six to 18 months and fines of up to $5,000, according to the Ohio Revised Code.
The Brunswick Division of Police post also tells the public “do not attempt to detain or confront them,” and it provides direct contact information for tips. It lists Investigator Brett McNabb at 330-722-9386 and [email protected], and urges residents to call authorities rather than approach the suspects themselves.
How to report tips
If you see either person, police say you should not approach them and should call 911 for an emergency. For non-emergencies or to pass along information, the Brunswick Division of Police records line is 330-558-6893, and the post lists Investigator McNabb’s tip line at 330-722-9386.
Legal note
Being named in a wanted post indicates there are active warrants or failure-to-appear orders, which are allegations and not convictions. For official case or court information, contact the Medina County Prosecutor’s Office or consult court records.
