SCOTTSDALE, AZ — A well-known Old Town Scottsdale business owner is facing charges after reportedly causing a disturbance during a cultural performance at a Super Bowl-related event earlier this week.
The incident was captured on video and has since surfaced on social media. The recording shows the man apparently mocking the dancers and yelling “MAGA country,” among other things.According to the website, “Gilbert Ortega Native American Galleries is a world renowned cultural arts dealer” that has been trading with the Native American community for hundreds of years.
“The crime of disorderly conduct does not qualify for a hate crime designation based on the FBI definition,” police said in a media release Thursday morning. Gilbert Ortega, Jr.'s despicable language and rage directed to Native performers is reprehensible and inexcusable.
