(CNN)Police said a man in Dallas admitted that he followed a transgender woman to a bus stop before shooting her multiple times.
A transgender woman had surgery last week after she was shot multiple times at a bus stop. Police said a Latino man driving a late-model four-door Chevrolet pickup pulled alongside the victim and shouted transphobic slurs.
The victim walked away and went to a bus stop but the suspect saw her waiting alone and approached h
er, an arrest affidavit states.
The suspect opened fire, striking her multiple times in the chest and arm, officials said.
Police said Ramirez-Cavente was arrested Tuesday after detectives located a vehicle that matched the suspect's vehicle, the affidavit said.
Ramirez-Cavente was initially arrested on traffic charges and taken for questioning to the police headquarters, where he spoke to the detectives after waving his Miranda rights, police said.
"During the interview, the suspect admitted to the details of the offense, including shooting the victim at the bus stop," an arrest affidavit said.
