Lost Highway

We were listening to the traffic reports a few days ago when one of the radio announcers said that there was a problem on 280 because a naked woman was spotted walking around the highway. All the deejays laughed, of course, so the traffic guy had to say over and over again that it was a true story. And you know what? It was a true story. Even crazier, police think there might be a connection between her and the murder of a transgender person.

This all started around 5:40 on Friday when police were called in on reports of a body found at Indiana and Cesar Chavez. The body has not been identified yet, but police said it was a male person in the process of being a woman. Two hours later, they heard reports of a naked woman walking around 280, near where it connects to 101. The woman was seen getting into a car on the highway.

The reason police think it's a connection is because often transgender people are stripped of their clothes when they are murdered. So, the police are thinking that maybe they were both attacked but the naked woman got away...
