A passerby found a black transgender woman unconscious in a parking lot of the Rosemont Apartments at 3015 E. Ledbetter Drive at about 6:15 a.m. on June 30.
Police have the woman’s legal name from next-of-kin but are asking the community for assistance with any other information including what her preferred name is.
