A group of teens beat a transgender person and threatened to kill her Saturday on Rainier Avenue, according to Seattle police.
The person, who told police she is in the process of changing her name and appearance to a woman, reported she was attacked by a group of teens at the bus stop at Rainier and South Mount Baker Boulevard.
A teenage boy (either 13 or 14) was arrested and booked into the Youth Service Center for investigation of robbery and felony malicious harassment, the state's hate crime law, according to police.
The teen told police he and his "homies" did not bother the victim until she solicited him for sex.
