- A man who has been arrested almost 180 times — and whose presence on the CTA's Green Line has instilled fear among riders whom he aggressively panhandles — has been arrested again.
Clarence Ervin, 52, of the 900 block of North Waller Avenue in Chicago, was arrested Saturday in Oak Park and charged with battery, criminal trespass and obstructing identification — all misdemeanors — stemming from two recent incidents, according to Oak Park police Cmdr. Len Jorgensen.
Ervin, whose numerous run-ins with the law were chronicled by the Tribune last week, was being held on $17,500 bail after a hearing at the Cook County courthouse in Maywood on the latest charges.
An amazing job by the Cook County courts and ASA's keeping repeat offenders behind bars where they can't harm citizens.
