A man suspected in the death of a woman found strangled in her garage is facing charges in connection with a separate incident in which he allegedly solicited a transsexual man for sex on Craigslist and then, after an argument, attempted to run the person over with his vehicle.

Michael Lane, 34, who police named Tuesday as a suspect in the death of 44-year-old Ginger Candela, found dead in her home in the 3100 block of Westfield Street on Nov. 30, has been charged in an attack on the transsexual man that allegedly occurred Nov. 24 near Sunrise Hospital.
