After lesbians get assaulted, police refuse to make report

[WillParkinson]

The incident took place July 30 at a DC train station, where two men shouted “dyke” and other expletives to the women, the Washington Blade reported. The altercation began when the men flirted with two of the lesbians. After one of the women rebuked the flirting and said she was with her girlfriend, the men began harassing them with anti-gay slurs and threats.
The men then punched two of the women in the face and head.

A 911 call was placed, supposedly by a bystander, but when police arrived they refused to complete a report and allowed the offenders to leave the scene.

“The police grabbed one of the attackers and restrained him,” Yazzmen Morse, one of the victims, said to the Blade. “Then they let him go. And then they said they didn’t want to hear our stories.”

Three days later, after Morse’s mother called and complained, the D.C. police’s Gay & Lesbian Liaison Unit made a report on Aug. 2. The report lists the altercation as an anti-gay hate crime. The liaison unit is working with officers from the Third District, who were the original unit to respond to the crime scene and refuse to make a report.
