City police have identified a man shot Wednesday night outside Union Memorial Hospital by officers who received word he was stalking a female patient. Phillip Holland, 61, of the 3700 block of Roland Ave. has been charged with two counts of assault on police after officers say he pulled a knife when they encountered him entering the hospital. Holland was shot in the legs, and police had to use a Taser on him, officials said. He has also been served two warrants charging him with attempted second-degree murder in connection with a Jan. 16 domestic incident in which police say he stabbed a woman outside a Royal Farms store in Hampden. Police did not identify the officers in the shooting.
