A 49-year-old man was charged Friday with hate-crime attacks against three women in Santa Ana.
Travis Michael Stankey was charged with two counts of assault with force likely to produce great bodily injury with sentencing enhancements for a hate crime, and a violation of civil rights with violent injury, all felonies. He was also charged with two counts each of violation of civil rights and assault, all misdemeanors.
The alleged attacks occurred on Wednesday, according to the criminal complaint. Further details of the alleged crimes were not immediately available from police.
Stankey, who was being held on $500,000 bail, did not enter a plea at his arraignment in the jail courtroom on Friday. The arraignment was rescheduled for Monday.
