San Francisco, California—A gay bar's alert bouncer, Frank Cuneo,
was on the door last Saturday at The Café on Market Street when he interacted
with two Boston-area men he'd seen described in a police flyer. Having
vacationed in Boston the previous summer, Cuneo guessed their place of origin
after hearing their accents as he checked their identifications.
While he turned them away from The Café after finding those identifications insufficient, he immediately dialed 911 and told police which way the suspects had headed. They'd been sought for over a week by law-enforcement officers after the beating and robbing of a Polk Street bar patron. And they were also believed to have taken part in a cross-country crime spree which included forays into gay bars. Following the immediate arrest of the wanted men, police praised the “cool demeanor” of the moonlighting gay bouncer (a transit driver during the day).
"The only reason why they would be going into a gay bar is to try to do it again," said The Café's acclaimed bouncer. The suspects are being held for trial without bail at the San Francisco Hall of Justice. |
