a November 2022 bar fight in Roxborough in which he allegedly hit three people and hurled racial and homophobic slurs

Authorities arrested Graber, who public records indicate now lives in Florida, over the incident last March. An Internal Affairs investigation found that he had become enraged after a person in Maria’s Ristorante changed the bar jukebox’s music to hip-hop or R&B.
