A 64-year-old registered sex offender was arrested in Rohnert Park Tuesday night after allegedly committing a hate crime against members of the Sonoma County Pride Bowling League.
According to the Press Democrat, Vincent Charles Belfiore was taken into custody after reportedly shouting homophobic slurs and punching a league member at Double Decker Lanes. Belfiore was arrested on suspicion of battery and committing a hate crime.
The league has since reaffirmed its commitment to inclusion, stating that solidarity is stronger than hate.
