Summary
A 40-year-old man who attacked a group of cyclists during a naked bike ride in June was sentenced to three years in prison for the assault and bias crime charges. He approached the cyclists with a 3-foot metal pipe and hurled a homophobic slur before attacking them, causing minor injuries. In a similar bias crime case, a 26-year-old man pleaded guilty to attempted robbery and bias crime and was given a chance at recovery during a three-year supervised probationary period.
