5 Charged in Horrifying Viral Cincinnati Brawl That Left Woman Knocked Out Cold

Five people have been charged over a vicious beatdown on a Cincinnati street after footage of the wild brawl went viral.

The suspects’ names were not released, and Cincinnati Police Chief Teresa Theetge declined to specify the charges – but cautioned more arrests were expected.

“We have five we have charged, and anticipate more,” Theetge told reporters Monday, two days after the 3 a.m. Saturday incident which she referred to as a “fight.”

Accoding to online videos, the “fight” consisted of a mob stomping on the head of a man cowering on downtown street, while a woman was cold-cocked and knocked out with blood pouring from her mouth after she tried to intervene.

Theetge, however, tried to downplay the brawl, calling the weekend “outside of this one incident, an amazing success for this city” while explaining that a baseball game and music festival happening in Cincinnati that night both went off without a hitch.

But Ohio gubernatorial candidate Vivek Ramaswamy said he spoke to the woman who was knocked out, claiming she was a mother named Holly who told him “not a single local or state official had yet reached out” to her besides “one police detective.”

“She’s a single working mom who went to a friend’s birthday party,” the former GOP presidential hopeful said. “It’s unconscionable that there were no police present in that area of Cincinnati on a Friday night, or even an ambulance to take her to the hospital.”
