An arrest was made Monday evening in the hate crime vandalism of the Fort Collins Islamic Center.

Joseph Scott Giaquinto, 35, faces charges of criminal mischief, a felony; third-degree trespass; and bias-motivated crime, according to Fort Collins police.

“We will not tolerate acts of hatred in our community, and I hope this arrest sends that message loud and clear,” Police Chief John Hutto said. “While the building can be repaired, this incident caused deeper hurt that won’t just go away. I urge all of our citizens to continue showing the kind of support and acceptance demonstrated at the Islamic Center rally on Sunday night.”

Giaquinto was booked into the Larimer County jail.

Giaquinto was arrested by Fort Collins police in November on misdemeanor theft and given a deferred sentence of 12 months, according to Colorado Bureau of Investigation arrest records.

“This incident has a very real impact on our Muslim friends and neighbors,” Hutto said. “The criminal act against their sacred space is unacceptable.”

Rocks and a Bible were thrown into the center through shattered windows. Fort Collins police released surveillance video from the incident Monday (below).

The center said on Facebook that the vandal broke the building’s back door at about 4 a.m. Sunday and inflicted “quite a bit of damage.” No injuries were reported.

Tawfik Aboellail, president of the center, told The Denver Post. “He tried to break in using a screwdriver, kicking at the door. Finally he broke two back doors with five-pound rocks.”

Aboellail said, “Thank God no one was here.” The center says the vandal didn’t enter the building but damaged everything he could outside of it.

“The Bible being thrown into the prayer hall is a message in itself,” Aboellail said. “We are peaceful people. We love our Christian and Jewish brothers. We don’t have any problems with anyone.”

A rally in support of the center, which predominantly serves students from nearby Colorado State University, drew a big crowd on Sunday evening.
