Transgender woman killed after being run over multiple times - KCTV5

Kansas City police say they still cannot say if the murder of a transgender woman was a hate crime.

Tamara Dominguez, 36, was hit by a truck early Saturday morning, then driven over by that truck again and again.

Though police can't confirm Dominguez' murder was a hate crime, members of the Kansas City transgender community told us they are often fearful and the hate is real.

However, this was no joke. Dominguez was killed in a brutal act of violence about 3 a.m. Saturday.

Witnesses say they saw a black Chevy Avalanche at the scene.

Police say the driver initially hit Dominguez, then ran over her body at least two more times.

"We understand that maybe they were arguing, but it's not fair for what he did. It ain't fair," Rendon said.
