Our heart goes out to her for what she’s been through,” Chief Jim McDonnell said. “We take these crimes very seriously.”

The Los Angeles Police Department is asking for the public’s help to find a group of men who they say attacked a transgender woman over the weekend and are believed to be the same people who attacked her in April.

One of three young suspects has been arrested in connection with at least six hate crime attacks on a transgender store owner in Los Angeles, according to police.
