Man may face charges after being shot

A homeless man may face criminal charges after he was shot Saturday night at the intersection of Mars and Wellesley in Albuquerque.

Albuquerque police say Kenneth Tortolito made sexual advances toward a woman who had been trying to get him back on his feet. That’s when police say 31-year-old Yvonne DeFilippo pulled out a gun and shot Tortolito in the torso.

DeFillippo was arrested, but it’s unclear whether she will face any charges.

Tortolito is in stable condition at University of New Mexico Hospital as police consider whether to charge him with attempted sexual assault.

No subsequent stories about this incident were found.
