Man charged with raping 93-year-old Pittsburgh woman deemed legally competent for hearing
A Pittsburgh man accused of raping a 93-year-old woman last year plans to plead not guilty.
Ronny Hough’s hearing Tuesday was postponed. His attorney says they got the results of his mental evaluation too late to review.
Hough was deemed legally competent for a hearing.
Hough is accused of following the elderly woman home after she saw a play in Downtown Pittsburgh. Police say he followed her onto a PRT bus then broke into her Troy Hill home and beat and raped her.
Hough is a registered sex offender from another incident. Six years ago, he assaulted a child under the age of 13.
He’ll be back in court at the end of January.
