Two people are claiming to be victims in the fight that started at a Kohl's in Jackson Tennessee, but police say there is only one victim, and one aggressor.
Transgender woman Akasha Adonis lost three teeth in the fight. She claims she is the victim, and police became biased against her, once they found out she is transgendered.
Police say surveillance video tells a different story. So does the man involved in the fight, Torrance Bates.
