MOUNT GREENWOOD — A Mount Greenwood man found with child pornography and has been arrested and charged with two felonies, according to Chicago police.

Russell Rhoads of the 10700 block of South Homan Avenue was arrested at 3:45 p.m. Thursday after police found child pornography on his computer. The victim was younger than 13, a police spokesman said Monday.

Rhoads, 51, lives just one block north of Mount Greenwood Elementary School and roughly two blocks west of McKiernan Park.

Ald. Matt O'Shea (19th) sent an email to his constituents Friday about the charges, saying he's been in contact with the Cook County State's Attorney's Office.

"Working together with residents and law enforcement, we will pursue the most aggressive possible prosecution. Moving forward, I will keep the community updated on the court proceedings," he said.

"This man was clearly a threat to the safety of our children," O'Shea said.
