   A Gary, IN man with prior burglary charges and a conviction for child rape was   
   apprehended by Oak Lawn Police, after he was found hiding in a vacant home in   
   the 10100 block of South Kolin Avenue, reports said.   
      
   Ulysses Green, 38, was charged with felony burglary, and was also found to   
   have two outstanding warrants, police said.   
      
   Officers were dispatched to the area of 101st Street and Kostner Avenue around   
   11:21 p.m. Jan. 4, for a report of a suspicious white minivan sitting idle on   
   the street.   
      
   Upon their arrival, police located a white Pontiac Montana minivan with   
   Indiana plates parked on the corner. As the officer approached the van, he   
   observed a man laying down in the front passenger seat.   
      
   Police said the man told officers that he was going for a ride with his   
   associate, Green, who was visiting a female friend.   
      
   According to the report, while en route from Indiana to Oak Lawn, the man told   
   police he fell asleep on the way and didn’t wake up until Green was parking    
   the van on the corner and exiting the vehicle.   
      
   Green told his friend that he’d be right back, so he went back to sleep,   
   reports said. The friend said he’d been asleep for 20 to 45 minutes until   
   officers woke him up, police said.   
      
   Police placed the man in a patrol car, who described Green as wearing a red   
   jacket. He wasn't sure which direction he headed,  reports said.   
      
   A pair of snowy footprints were observed on the driver’s side of the van.   
   The officer followed the footprints that led through a property fence at a   
   vacant home under construction on Kolin Avenue.   
      
   After determining that there were no other footprints in the snow surrounding   
   the house, the officer observed a broken hinge on a temporary door in the   
   garage, reports said.   
      
   Police said that someone could be heard walking through the residence.   
   Additional officers were called to the scene, who set up a perimeter around   
   the house.   
      
   Officers entered through the broken entryway and announced themselves. They   
   ordered anyone on the premises to come out, but received no response, reports   
   said.   
      
   As officers were clearing the first floor, they located a man wearing a red   
   jacket, later identified as Green, allegedly holding a piece of copper pipe   
   and hiding behind some insulation.   
      
   Police said that Green identified himself. While searching him, police   
   allegedly recovered a flashlight, screwdriver, wrench, wire stripping tool, a   
   cell phone and knit cap.   
      
   The owner arrived on the scene and determined that the rest of the house was   
   intact. Police said the owner determined that a crowbar found near the broken   
   door did not belong to the house, as well as the items found in Green’s   
   possession.   
      
   A neighbor told police that the Pontiac Montana had been parked at 101st   
   Street and Kostner for about 20 minutes, when he called police, reports said.   
      
   While checking Green’s name in LEADS, police determined that Green had two   
   active warrants. The first for failing to make court on a charge of driving   
   with a suspended license in Sangamon County, IL, and the other a felony   
   burglary charge in Lake    
   County, IN.   
      
   Police took Green into custody. His friend was also brought to the Oak Lawn   
   police station, but was not under arrest.   
      
   Green allegedly told police that he was in the area because he was working on   
   a house. At 5 p.m., he completed the job and called for his ride home.
