- Criminal trespass;
- Interfering with an emergency call;
- Unlawful restraint;

Following an investigation, Milford Police allege Litzie pushed a woman into a refrigerator and cabinets, pulled her by the hair, and broke items around the house. When the woman said she was going to call 911, Litzie allegedly took the victim's cell phone and home phone away.
Litzie is accused of then holding the woman down by her neck and sexually assaulting her, police said.
After being held for several hours, Litzie “passed out” and the victim was able to call 911, police said.
Litzie is being held on a $100,000 bond.
