Norwood man goes on trial for robbing Boy Scout

David Keeling, 19, of Norwood, is one of three men accused of using a sawed-off shotgun to rob a Boy Scout selling Christmas trees this past December. Unlike the other two accused, Keeling rejected plea deals, and, instead, he goes on trial today before Hamilton County Common Pleas Judge David Davis. According to Judge David Davis, the two who admitted their guilt face maximum prison sentence of 53 and 58 years respectively.
