29-year-old man charged with assault in shooting of transgender woman in northwest Dallas
Police released surveillance video and images of a red Chevrolet pickup that was considered a suspect vehicle, and on Tuesday they were able to identify the vehicle as belonging to Ramirez-Cayente.
He was arrested on traffic charges and, during a subsequent interview with detectives, admitted shooting the woman, the affidavit says.
Ramirez-Cayente has previously been convicted of driving while intoxicated in Dallas County. A drug-related conviction was dismissed after he successfully completed probation, court records show.
