Anti-gay violence in Sacramento
There seems to be an increase in incidents of violence against
gays and hate crimes. Be careful out there.
June 19, 2008
Gay man attacked in Midtown Thursday,
A gay man was assaulted on Thursday, June 19, at approximately
1:45 a.m. while walking alone after leaving a Midtown bar near
20th and J streets. He was hospitalized with injuries and
released from the hospital on Friday afternoon. The attackers
are believed to be three or four white males, according to
witnesses who observed the attack.
The attackers allegedly used homophobic slurs during the attack.
The victim also was robbed. The attack is not believed to be
related to earlier hate crime attacks that have occurred in
recent weeks, according to Capt. Darrell Fong of the Sacramento
Police Department.
June 1, 2008
A gay male couple was assaulted after attempting to intervene in
a fight near their residence at approximately 1 a.m. Sunday,
June 1, near the intersection of E and 28th streets.
The two victims, one of whom was dressed in drag, were returning
to their home when they observed a man shouting and threatening
to stab and beat up another man. When they called out to the
alleged perpetrator to "calm down," he turned on them, chasing
them and yelling gay slurs. He broke off a 3-foot length of
fence picket and struck the victim who was in drag, then picked
up a metal chair and threw it at the victim. Acting in
self-defense, the victim picked up the chair and struck the
alleged perpetrator before fleeting to the safety of his home.
Sacramento Police officers responded to the scene and arrested
the alleged perpetrator, who has not yet been arraigned.
The incident appears to be the third anti-LGBT hate crime in
Sacramento in less than three weeks. On May 15, a gay man and
his straight cousin were attacked by a group of man at a gas
station near Richards Boulevard. Three men were charged with
robbery and assault with a hate crimes enhancement, and police
are seeking a fourth suspect who was caught on surveillance
video.
May 27, 2008
On May 27, two homeless transgender men were attacked by an
assailant identified by police as a "skinhead." The assailant
was arrested after one of the victims stabbed him in the leg and
charged with robbery, battery against a peace officer and
interfering with one's civil rights.
The Stonewall Democratic Club of Sacramento, Sacramento Gay &
Lesbian Center and Rainbow Chamber of Commerce urge members of
our community to continue to remain alert, mindful of their
surroundings and aware of others' behavior.
