CINCINNATI — A Georgetown, Kentucky 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 Trump’s 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.


Dallas Frazier, 29, is accused of punching an anti-Trump protester oustide of U.S. Bank Arena on Thursday, August 1, 2019, according to police. He faces an assault charge.

Confusing, but looks like the driver tried to stop him MarcA Aug 2019 #30
He couldn't have been the driver since someone else drove off in the red truck. nt SunSeeker Aug 2019 #35
he was the driver, I think a cop drove the truck away Celerity Aug 2019 #40
That would be very unusual. Cops are instructed not to get in other people's cars. SunSeeker Aug 2019 #41
yes, maybe a friend nt Celerity Aug 2019 #42
