WEST FARMINGTON — A 50-year-old West Farmington man faces up to three years in prison after pleading guilty to choking a woman and trying to prevent her from leaving his home.

Ronald R. Swiger, of state Route 534 in West Farmington, entered pleas to two fourth-degree felony counts of strangulation and attempted abduction in Trumbull County Common Pleas Court before Judge Sean O’Brien.

The charges relate to a Nov. 27, 2024, incident in a West Farmington home, where prosecutors say Swiger choked the woman and blocked her attempt to flee. Swiger will undergo a background investigation before his sentencing.
