Sounds similar to what mine did when the starter was starting to go. It would start fine at times (sometimes would be fine for a couple weeks) but, then you'd turn the key and the starter would just sound weak and not even turn over the engine. Would finally turn over the engine after a crank or two. When I removed the old started, a bunch of black powder poured out of it.

Check the battery condition as well as alternator output and voltage drop while starting.
The metallic screeching sound is the pinion gear hitting the ring gear and not engaging.
This could be from a low battery, bum battery cables or a weak starter.
Brian, the black powder is what used to be the carbon brushes.
