NOTE:  The Newspaper's use of improper pronouns.

QuoteThe truck began following him and continued to do so until the man decided to stop in the Safeway on Bucklin Hill Road, deputies said. There, the truck circled a nearby parking lot before leaving, the man told deputies.

The man said it was a "hate crime" because he was a "transsexual."

The deputy noted the man had painted red fingernails. When asked by deputies how they could have known he was a transsexual, the man said his vehicle is well-known in the community and he didn't know when the truck had actually started following him.
