The episode took place in front of the Tabu Lounge and Sports Bar shortly before 1 a.m. Tabu Lounge and Sports Bar in Philadelphia. “It’s disturbing anytime there’s an unprovoked attack,” said Naish, adding he had not heard of previous complaints about the people doing security for the gay bar, and declined to comment on the circumstances. Police later identified him as 24-year-old Kenneth Frye of Philadelphia.
Deputy Police Commissioner Ben Naish told reporters the arrest warrant had been issued in the case, and the suspect was expected to either turn himself in or be taken into custody shortly.
