It has also been revealed that Ortiz was ordered to put his mask on or get off the property. Ortiz has been very outspoken about the pandemic and the situation which America is in with the pandemic.
The HB resident is @OVUNIDAD leader Victor Valladares. I was summoned to the school district to tell Tito Ortiz to either put on his mask or get OFF our property. See us later on KCBS2 news interviewed by @CBSmichelegile. This pandemic is not fake and this is not a game, Ortiz!
