A 19-year-old man was arrested in connection with the sexual battery of a woman in her Coral Springs home Sunday night. 

Coral Springs police said the 25-year-old woman was with her newborn baby at their home in the 2300 block of Northwest 95th Avenue at about 8 p.m. when a man came in. 

Police believe the man planned to burglarize the house, but when the woman confronted him, he pulled a knife and attacked her. The man beat, choked and sexually battered the woman, Coral Springs police said. The baby was not harmed. 

The attacker stole the woman’s cellphone and escaped, police said. 

The victim called police, who established a perimeter and arrested the suspect, whom they identified Monday as Gary Lenard Holmes, 19, of Pompano Beach. 

According to the arrest affidavit, police said Holmes, who was wearing a bloody shirt, admitted to sexually battering the woman, stealing her cellphone and throwing it in the garbage. Police said he called an ex-girlfriend and told her what he had done. 

The woman was treated for non-life-threatening injuries. 

Holmes faces charges of armed sexual battery, burglary with battery, armed occupied burglary and petit theft.
