BRIDGEPORT -
Bridgeport police say a prominent transgender woman was shot in the face in her own apartment Wednesday afternoon, and they're looking into whether it was a hate crime.

Witnesses say they saw the victim stumble out to the sidewalk near the intersection of Park Avenue and Stillman Street.

It happened in the victim's first-floor apartment, police say. They say they believe the victim knew her attacker. They did not immediately make an arrest.
My grandparents lived just off of Park Avenue and North St by the old King Cole’s grocery store, so I know that area and I think that the article is in error, I think they meant Park St.

She is in my thoughts for a speedy recovery/
