Man charged in death of 80-year-old after mask dispute in upstate New York bar

(CNN) A man has been charged in the death of an 80-year old man who died last week after a confrontation at a bar about not wearing a mask and treating bar-staff poorly in upstate New York, according to the Erie County district attorney.

Donald Lewinski, 65, is facing a charge of criminally negligent homicide in the death of Rocco Sapienza, Erie County District Attorney John Flynn announced Monday.

Sapienza allegedly confronted Lewinski at a West Seneca bar near Buffalo on September 26 about how he spoke to the bar staff and for not regularly wearing a mask as Lewinski brought out buckets of beer to a band playing outside, Flynn said.
