CINCINNATI A Georgetown man was led away from U.S. Bank Arena to chants of Lock him up! after assaulting an anti-Trump protester Thursday night.
The brief confrontation 29-year-old Dallas Frazier climbing out of a pickup and repeatedly punching 61-year-old protester Mike Alter in the head was recorded and quickly posted to Facebook by fellow protester Scott Fantozzi. More than 1,600 people had shared the video by 10 p.m.
According to Alter, who spoke with WCPO over the phone and via text, the protest against President Donald Trumps campaign visit to US Bank Arena had been peaceful until Frazier arrived. He and a group of other protesters had been standing on one side of Broadway Street, occasionally exchanging shouts and chants with supporters on their way to the rally.
Then the red pickup drove by, and Frazier began shouting at the protesters from the passenger seat.

"lock him up."
Hope they slap him with an outrageous (to him, not us) fine. Some time in jail for hitting someone that hard who is twice his age wouldn't be a bad idea, if they can manage it.
Thank you, so much, dalton99a.
