An Uptown man whose last known address was a shelter in the 900 block of West Lawrence has been charged with rape. Read all about it at the Chicago Tribune here.

  1. As a point of information, the shelter they are referencing is the R.E.S.T. shelter which has beds for men (only), a meal program, some services and a daytime warming/cooling room.

  3. The Sun-Times has more details:

    "He has a history of narcotics-related convictions, including one in 2007 that resulted in his current three-year parole sentence."

    and

    "According to Holman's public defender, Armando Sandoval, Holman is married, works at a hotel, and attends Moody Bible Church."

    Thankfully the second assault was foiled.

  5. Hey, IrishPirate. Can you tell from that video if he was apprehended on Broadway or Sheridan? I am so bad at identifying locations on film. I'm even fooled by the lincoln park el stops they use for "loop" el stops on ER! :)
