Homeless Man Breaks Into Sox GM Kenny Williams' House, Likes What He Sees and Hangs a While

White Sox general manager Kenny Williams is probably changing his locks and the security codes for his downtown townhouse today after a homeless man broke into it over the weekend, liked what he saw, and made himself at home.

Wayne Field III has been held on $100,000 bond after he broke into Williams' home, drank some beer and ate some pizza, used Williams' computer and even defrosted a lobster before he left wearing some of Williams' clothing, including a fur and Williams' 2005 World Series ring.

(The fact that Williams owns a fur probably won't sway Sun-Times Guillen family correspondent Joe Cowley's opinion that he's "gone Hollywood.")

Field left behind a hospital bracelet with his name on it> this made it easier to catch him when he decided to return to Williams' home.

Field was previously living in an Uptown homeless shelter and was convicted and sentenced to 30 days in jail Nov. 8. Officials couldn't explain why he was in the hospital. Field's arrest record includes arrests for assault, indecent exposure and sexual abuse. Should he somehow make bail, Field is to not have any contact with Williams or be around U.S. Cellular Field.
