STOCKTON, Calif. -- A transgender woman was shot and injured by Stockton police after allegedly charging officers with a sword on Sunday, authorities said.

Officers received a report at 7:19 p.m. of a disturbance at an apartment at 828 Dave Brubeck Way.

Police arrived to find 38-year-old Gregory Grooms refusing to come outside and "speaking irrationally," Officer Pete Smith said in a news release.

Since that is considered a deadly weapon, she's lucky she was not shot to death.
FIGHT APATHY!, or don't...

Taser or stun gun (world of difference)?
Transman or Transwoman? Gender references flip flop back and forth and the name is male.
