Since news broke of what police are calling a hate crime in which a lesbian Richmond resident was brutally gang raped over the weekend, Richmond police have received dozens of calls from people wanting to help, police Lt. Mark Gagan said Tuesday.
"Most of the calls were just people expressing concern for the victim and wanting to help financially," he said.
Some callers have provided tips in the case but nothing yet that has produced an arrest, Gagan said.
An account has been set up for the victim by a Richmond, California group, Community Violence Solutions (2101 Van Ness St., San Pablo, Calif., 94806. Donors should write "Richmond Jane Doe" on the check in the memo space, with 100% of the proceeds to go to the rape survivor).
