, the ABC affiliate station in San Diego, 39-year-old Scott Rowin went to a restaurant in his neighborhood on Monday to ask about a job."Started hearing f*** this, f*** that. The word came up quite a bit," Rowin told KGTV.
Rowin, who is gay, yelled back and said the next thing he knew, he was being doused with some sort of liquid. "Immediately after that, I went up kind of like coals on a barbecue," he said. "Instantly just went into flames. They were obviously out targeting LGBT community."It's unclear if he'll need surgery.Copyright © 2023 KABC Television, LLC. All rights reserved.
