A 38-year-old man was arrested Wednesday night on charges of assault and intimidation for attacking a woman on the street, police said.

Timothy Emmett Walsh rode his bike by a group near the 400 block of Northwest Glisan Street and told a 25-year-old female she was a man in woman's clothing, according to the police report.

Police told the website Them. that the woman is transgender.

After the alleged victim responded, Walsh made another comment about her sexual orientation. He then punched her in the face repeatedly, police said.

Walsh then rode his bike toward the Greyhound bus station, police said. They found and arrested him without conflict.
