Head Of Chicago Anti-Violence Group Arrested For Allegedly Hitting Wife

CHICAGO (CBS) – The head of a publicly funded anti-violence group is now facing charges after allegedly attacking his wife inside their suburban home.

Tio Hardiman, the head of Cease Fire/Cure The Violence, was arrested after allegedly striking his wife, Alison, in Hillside, CBS 2?s Mai Martinez reports.

Hardiman was booked at the Hillside Police station and has been charged with domestic abuse. He is scheduled to appear in bond court on Saturday.

Police say Hardiman’s wife told officers she and Hardiman got into an argument Thursday night and things got physical.

She showed them bruises to prove it.

I guess some people want to keep their wives unarmed for their own safety

Specifically keeping guns away from women, obviously.

But as a convicted felon that's not really an option in gun free Chicago, right?
