Mom raped as newborn lay beside

As a woman was being raped, she managed to call 911 and leave the line open so police could pinpoint her location and catch her attacker.

This happened during a burglary attempt in her house.

The burglar spotted the 25-year-old woman with her baby and decided to rape her.

Holding a knife to the woman, he beat, choked, raped and sodomized her as the newborn lay on the bed.

But the victim was clever for the attacker.

During the assault she managed to call police from her cell phone, leaving the line open so police could trace it.

The dispatchers could hear the assaults taking place and pinpointed the location of the call.

Gary L. Holmes, 19, has been charged with armed sexual battery, armed burglary and one count of petit theft.

Miamiherald reported that his sweatshirt was stained with blood and he admitted to the rapes.

Police say Holmes assaulted the woman three times. He spotted the cell phone on his way out and tossed it in the garbage.

The baby was not injured.
