Homeless man charged with hate crime in attack on transgender woman

A homeless man has been arrested after he allegedly pushed a transgender woman onto the subway tracks in Greenwich Village earlier this week. Police said Saturday he had been charged with second-degree attempted murder as a hate crime.

Police identified the man as 32-year-old Rolan Reid. When they made the arrest at the Canal Street station on Saturday, he threatened them, “I’m going to throw you guys onto the tracks,".

Later, Reid was taken to a hospital for psychological evaluation, police said. He also reportedly made statements to police incriminating himself.

The 28-year-old transgender woman said she was standing on a platform at the train station when Reid allegedly yelled at her, “What are you looking at” before pushing her onto the tracks. Her attacker fled, and another rider helped her back up onto the platform.

She was treated and released from the hospital after the attack.

Bishop Dammy, you don't want to hear the story because it involves a trans woman? Your place in Hell is still being prepared. If he pushed her onto a moving train I'm sure all you'd have to say is that she should have changed her life, not that she was an innocent woman murdered by a deranged homeless man.

Justice should b served accordingly to deter others frm dis act. Hater's keep off, and treat others wit luv.

So if it was a black man he pushed, would it also be a hate crime? This transgender stories and it's apologists sef. There's a nice report on it here - ROUNDS WEEK 23: ON MR. CAITLYN, SEPP BLATTER, AKON, OUR PLAYER OF THE WEEK…AND MORE.

That is exactly why it is attempted murder

Maybe it is because you live in a third world country, subway tracks are electrified and hopefully you know the implication of that

Hmmm
