Description
San Diego Police say there is increased police presence in Hillcrest and surrounding neighborhoods this weekend after a series of pellet gun attacks outside several LGBTQ bars last Saturday.
Police say they’re investigating the attacks as possible hate crimes. The people who did it have not been caught but that’s not keeping many people, including one of the victims, from hanging out in Hillcrest this weekend.
“We need our safe spaces. We need our clubs. We need our place to congregate. Rich's isn't just a bar and I'm not just a gay guy,” says Eddie Reynoso, a longtime LGBTQ activist and employee at Rich’s Nightclub.
