The 17-year-old black male accused in a violent home invasion and rape has surrendered to police

Sources say that Gregory Hodge turned himself in. Investigators say that he forced his way into a home, then raped and robbed a 23-year-old woman inside at gunpoint. The victim's boyfriend said that he knows Gregory Hodge extremely well. He says that he previously mentored Hodge, and he believes that Hodge sexually assaulted his girlfriend in retaliation because he wouldn't give him money. As police searched the area for clues, witnesses led them to Hodge. Just hours after the crime, the boyfriend said that he was frustrated that reaching out to help Hodge and other neighborhood children led to this incident. The non-profit, Harvest Hands, has helped disadvantaged youth for five years, and neighborhood mentors are all over town. Hodge is behind bars at a juvenile detention center. Along with aggravated rape and robbery, Hodge could face additional charges.
