Sept. 27 hearing is set for man charged with rape

A bail violation hearing for Gary P. Lamountain, a convicted sex offender now accused of raping a woman in Cumberland, is scheduled for Sept. 27 in Providence County Superior Court.

In August, Lamountain, of Cumberland, was assisting a 27-year-old woman move an air conditioner into her apartment, residents have said. Early the next morning, the police say Lamountain broke into the woman’s apartment and raped her.

Lamountain was arrested after a four-hour search that morning and was charged with first-degree sexual assault and breaking and entering.

The woman was treated and released from Women & Infants Hospital in Providence on Sunday.

Lamountain had recently been released from prison, for a rape a few years ealeri, before the alleged sex assault last month.
