Makeup Man Brawled With Boyfriend, Assaulted Deputy: Cops
The Romeoville man did not want his boyfriend arrested, police said.

One of the men booked into the Will County jail while still wearing his Halloween makeup was caught brawling with his boyfriend at a Lockport Township house, police said.
While Alexandro Hernandez, 23, was still made-up when his mug shot was snapped, his boyfriend, 19-year-old Brody Gilmore, was not. Gilmore was, however, sporting a shiner on his right eye.
Hernandez, a Romeoville resident, and Gilmore, who lives in Joliet, were among “multiple subjects in a physical altercation at a residence on the 300 block of Princeton Avenue” when county deputies happened to pass by about 3:15 a.m. Sunday, police said.
