Five Charged in Brutal Brawl in Cincinnati That Left a Woman Knocked Out
The chief of police did not identify those charged or detail the charges.
Cincinnati Police Chief Teresa Theetge announced that five people face charges related to a brutal brawl in the city that left a man with a bloody face and a woman knocked out cold.
Theetge did not identify the men or detail the charges.
The footage showed two black men chasing down a white man, knocking him to the ground. Then a large group swarmed around him, kicking him on the head and torso.
One person body-slammed him.
A woman rushed in to help the men, but one person punched the back of her head.
The lady fell down, cracking her head on the pavement and knocking her out cold.
JUST IN: Vivek Ramaswamy says he spoke to the woman who was violently beaten in Cincinnati over the weekend, says not a single local or state official reached out to her.
Horrible.
Here is Vivek's full statement:

Witnesses told law enforcement that “the man at the center of the fight interacted with the attackers about 15 minutes earlier, and that he’d left before coming back.”
Theetge told the media that hundreds of people witnessed the brawl, but only one person called the police.
But Theetge also did not help herself:
Theetge, however, tried to downplay the brawl, saying “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.
Um, okay? So what!? I think the only event that could ever overshadow the fight would be the second coming of Jesus.

The average US black IQ is 86, and everybody notices the smart blacks, up around 120 or so and obvious in management jobs thanks to hiring priority.
There’s an equal number of blacks with an IQ of 50, and they believe the reason that they don’t have stuff is that whites are stealing it from them.
A black cultural shift is needed mostly. You do best by acting white no matter how smart or dumb you are, ought to be the message.
Another discussion we’re not allowed to have in public.
It’s poorly analyzed. Whites have more variance as % of population but have a huge low IQ contingent as well.
Hardin’s racist and dated opinions will never be worth the electrons used to put them on the internet.
Every group DOES have real, quantitative group scores on various intelligence tests. And no two groups are the same, so there are going to be groups that are higher and lower on that scale. To pretend that doesn’t exist or isn’t true is to stick your head in the sand.
Why is it that you get so bent out of shape over what rhhardin wrote (the numbers of which are accurate) but I doubt you would even bother commenting if someone wrote that Japanese or Koreans have higher mean IQs than whites. Most whites don’t care if someone said that to them, many simply responding with, “Yeah, they’re smart”. And they are. But one word about blacks and IQ and people like you have to try and divert from the numbers and the pretend that … “everyone’s the same”. Everyone’s not the same.
but I doubt you would even bother commenting if someone wrote that Japanese or Koreans have higher mean IQs than whites. Most whites don’t care if someone said that to them, many simply responding with, “Yeah, they’re smart”. And they are
Yes, they are.
But this isn’t true either.
The ‘Asians have higher IQ overall than whites is achieved by pretending that Jews are something other than Caucasian. and giving them a separate placement in the scale.
When Jewish people are resorbed into the scale with whites there is a 5 point difference in favor of whites.
Why is this important? Because knowing the actual breakdown assists in figuring out what, exactly, IQ is measuring.
RE:Azathoth july 29 11:00am post:
exactly !!!!
recently,, around the time the (not)new phenomenon of Blacks assaulting asians was taking place ( to coincide, per the msm,, that the attacks were launched b/c of trump).
blacks said , hey, those asians are poc and so its not racist
Clearly, a few African Americans have engaged in this hateful behavior; I’ve seen the same videos everyone else has.
And just as there’s no evidence to suggest that the majority of these attacks are being perpetrated by Black Americans, there’s no evidence to that other claim one hears a lot,
But what we shouldn’t do is use it as an excuse to blame Black people, as some have done.
https://www.newsweek.com/stop-blaming-black-people-anti-asian-hate-opinion-1577887
Actually this is very well studied. Blacks have consistently the lowest tested average IQ of any population demographic in any country IQ is measured (Rushton and Jenson studies). Indeed, California literally made it illegal to IQ test Black children bc they often scored into the clinically retarded range for IQ. This information might upset you, but your response sounds like a huge insecure cope. You are free to google this information yourself.
You have posted this racist crap on iq’s multiple times. Will you just stop
It’s not racist.
It’s simply what is.
For most i[of my life average black IQ has been listed as 85, Einstein was reported to be 205, now they claim his was 140, and recently started saying 86 for blacks, I think that IQ is being messed with for political reasons. I see no evidence that the Flynn effect applies to American blacks.
Einsteins IQ was never tested, you are reading sensationalized articles guessing his intelligence you moron.
So who’s messing with it do you think? White people? This would be odd, considering Jews and South-East Asians have the highest measured average IQ, not White people. So whos gaining what here by fabricating the numbers?
Our society has been conditioned to accept crime and distrust the police. This is a natural consequence.
Arm yourself.
Certain cities and certain segments of the population have been conditioned more than others.
Name me one city with a chick in charge of the police that isn’t out of control
Remember the “knock-out game”? Not actually a game. A sick expression of racial violence that was essentially laughed off by the authorities because calling it out as sick racially motivated violence apparently did not fit the narrative. I think the sick racists got the message.
I was born and raised in Los Angeles and went to college in San Diego. They, combined with qualified immunity and Frazier vs Kupp, I trust the police as far as I could throw the Rock of Gibraltar.
They … that.
Only 5 charged?? There were at least 20 people on that video – easily identifiable – who deserve serious charges.
Animals. This is horrific stuff. Completely savage and uncivilized.
One block from the Convention Center. Two or three blocks from Fountain Square. A fair bit away from the game or the concert, which is likely where the police were.
Shame no one was armed and able to defend themselves.
Those defending themselves would be in ja.
In the early 80s I was interviewed for a job in the area that the Feds placed their agencies’ headquarters as part of their urban renewal strategy. The people who I interviewed with told me to leave as soon as possible as, being winter, sundown came early. They told me that when darkness came the gangs drifted in to occupy their territories. Kind of like hordes of zombies. Back then Ohio didn’t issue concealed carry permits so the commuting workers got out of Dodge as fast as they could. Didn’t disappoint me when I wasn’t offered the job. Perhaps they had the impression that I wouldn’t take it even if they offered it to me.
New policy should be to locate outside of cities. Even when a city has neat cultural attractions, they just are not worth the downsides.
The concert is held every year at the football stadium, about three blocks straight south from Elm and Fourth. The baseball stadium is about three blocks to the East of the football stadium, so about six blocks from Elm and Fourth.
PS – This is a jazz festival that has opened up its music groups, and historically has attracted jazz enthusiasts from several surrounding states.
Kicking in the head? That is attempted murder.
Only if a White person does it. Then it’s a hate crime as well. But blacks? Not so much. If at all.
So other than the Japanese staging a surprise attack on the Pacific fleet it was a beautiful day in Oahu. You just can’t hate these progressives enough.
“Brawl” is the wrong word, this was a one-sided gang beatdown
they always like to say
“there was an argument”
…everything to keep the blmplo animals pacified
There were reasons for sundown laws.
The disparity of force seems very bad. The images are violent, wantonly so. That said, this supposedly occurred at 03:00 ish in a downtown area of a d/prog controlled blue City with a wokiesta Police Chief in a County that went 57% for Harris in ’24. It isn’t victim blaming to point out this was not a good risk/reward analysis. The fact is there are events in some locations, at some times that should be avoided as unsafe. If the list of those in your current location is getting longer, maybe it is worth considering how much risk you are willing to tolerate before relocating. Might have to change careers and downsize lifestyle but that’s preferable to being brutally beaten by a mob while folks stand aside and watch/take video.
sureeee…
new job interview: and why did you leave your home of 27 years?
maga: well I was tired of living where animals are given no to little jail time and we pay them welfare disguised as school loans food housing clothing
Settle down boomer. People change employers, careers and place of residence all the time. It isn’t at all uncommon or unusual and there’s no stigma attached to it. At worst if you move to a small town where you have no prior family association you’ll be like the ‘new kid’ at school for half a decade. If you don’t bring loony lefty nonsense with you and actively try to adapt to the culture of the community and its norms you’ll be fine.
Many stand there because they fear being Rittenhoused or Penny’d.
True. No outrage from me b/c some bystander didn’t intervene due to their own risk assessment. Everyone is responsible for the safety and security of themselves, their Spouse and Children. Period. Anyone whose security plan is ‘a random stranger is gonna step in and save me’ in our current culture is gonna end up very disappointed.
And then, of course, there is the giant female View fan, sprinting into ground zero like the Toxic Avenger.
The Toxic Avenger is a vastly underrated hero/character. I’d pay good money to see the audience of the View, led by the cast, perform an old school standard APFT (PT test).
There have been growing problems downtown. And yes, Hamilton County, once a Republican stronghold that balanced Democrat Cleveland, has gone deep blue. The County just voted in a Democrat woman attorney with no courtroom experience as the Prosecuting Attorney. It is the first time in 100 years that a Democrat has been elected to that position. And she is already being criticized by the local paper for not prosecuting cases based on emotional reactions from minority communities. This does not bode well for Cincinnati’s future.
It sucks for the normies, the honest workaday folks. They have lots of investment in the community, attachment to it’s social institutions, fond memories of taking their family to X, Y and Z places/events. I would argue that allowing preference for nostalgia to override concerns about safety/security and a local gov’t that can’t seem to deliver the basics is foolish. IMO there’s a point at which the leftists become too entrenched to root out and the only realistic option for change is to move away. Look at LA area for an example of this.
I hate to see this turning away from logic. I would not move to Hamilton County today. But I bought my parents house when my mother moved into a retirement facility, and the back yard is completely private. I just don’t have the years left to do that again. So I watch the silliness take hold throughout the County in both black and white communities. At least property values keep rising where I live. So far.
The footage showed two black men chasing down a white man, knocking him to the ground. Then a large group swarmed around him, kicking him on the head and torso.
This is not really a racial problem – it’s a cultural one. Unfortunately it’s a Black American culture. Eventually America is going to have to face this problem and actually deal with it. If you remove Blacks and Hispanics from the crime statistics, the U.S. crime rate is about the same as Finland’s. That is : pretty damn low.
However for 50 years we have just pretended the problem is not real. Despite all the talk and programs, the problems have gotten worse, not better.
Blacks, however, represent 26.6% of total arrests, including 51.2% of murder arrests, 52.7% of robbery arrests, 28.8% of burglary arrests, 28.6% of motor vehicle theft arrests, 42.2% of prostitution arrests, and 26.1% of drug arrests (FBI’s Uniform Crime Report, Table 43).
Black residents also have the highest level of incarceration rates of any racial group. As of 2019, Blacks were incarcerated in local jails at a rate of 600 per 100,000 U.S. residents, which is more than three times the rate for Whites (184 per 100,000 U.S. residents) (Zeng and Minton 2021). The combined state and federal imprisonment rate for Black sentenced prisoners in 2019 was 1,096 per 100,000 U.S. residents compared to 214 per 100,000 U.S. residents for Whites (Carson 2020).
https://oll.libertyfund.org/publications/liberty-matters/2024-02-13-systemic-racism-in-crime-do-blacks-commit-more-crimes-than-whites
the culture will change about as quickly as they can change their race
You say it isnt a racial problem when Whites are literally targeted and attacked for their race as a form of racialized revenge stemming from some nebulous grievance and latent racism/hatred Blacks harbor against Whites for crimes Blacks today never actually endured. The fat bald White guy started the fight wiht a slap, but the white woman and old white man who were assaulted next were targeted for their skin color.
Ah, but what if you remove recent immigrants from the Finnish stats? Then they still come out lower.
The USA has had a higher crime rate than many parts of Europe for centuries, even before Black culture [capitalization intentional] became a thing and made it so much worse. Not all the reasons are known, but part of it is that the Scots-Irish that populated much of the USA have a crime-prone culture, which in turn is where Black culture got it from in the first place and magnified it.
“higher crime rate vs europe”
the media in these different countries report what they and how they want to report crimes
france DOES NOT even include race in their reports/stats as they try to diffuse that angle
The USA had a higher crime rate than much of Europe long before “race” was even a factor. And long before modern reporting methods were even a thing. So it’s not explainable as an artifact of those things.
Not “crime”, per se, but Europe has managed to kill tens of millions of its own citizens and neighbors over the past few centuries which seriously dwarfs anything that has ever happened in America or that Americans have ever done. America is not even in the same universe as that.
So, it would be a fairly distorted view of reality that would lead ANYONE to ever claim that Europe is not as violent as America. Europe is in a totally different class from America, in terms of wholesale killing and abusing people – their own and others.
Right. It’s the statist point of view, that believes that people killing other people at that rate is an outrageous enormity, whereas government killing the same number of people… well, that’s just something unfortunate but normal and it happens every so often.
“The USA had a higher crime rate than much of Europe long before “race” was even a factor…”
Uhm, when was that?
By the way, I’ve also read the article which blames Black American Culture on the influence of American Scotch-Irish
“White trash” culture. Frankly, I rolled my eyes a bit at that one. First, correlation does not equal causation. Second, I don’t that that American white-trash have had enough influence over the globe to account for, say, Africa’s problems.
II think that theory is just a convenient excuse: poor American Blacks they entirely forgot their own African culture and so completely adopted a new one, which was, sadly, that of the lazy dishonest hillbillies. If only they have been exposed to a culture that placed personal honor and chivalry high on the list of virtues.
Yeah, right.
Before race was a factor?
Before there were races? What the hell does this even mean?
Before it was measured? What?
Race has been a ‘factor’ for a long, long time.
Diffuse ≠ defuse
correct
thanks
Being mostly Scots Irish. Yep, recreational warfare was a Scottish tradition up until the 20th century.
OTOH, look at our combat related casualty rate. The tip of the spear guys are disproportionately Scot Irish.
So, we raise he’ll on Saturday night, but you are happy to have us when the balloon goes up.
Can’t say the same for certain other problem groups.
Yes, the USA has traditionally had a high crime rate. I assumed that was a result of the skewered percentage of aggressive people who chose to come to the new world, instead of hoping for the best from the old. These were not people easily intimidated. Sadly, in my view, the bell curve has reasserted itself. It certainly seems that we now have a large percentage of docile, if not downright subservient, people.
Sounds like a mash up of Thomas Sowell’s “Black Rednecks and White Liberals” and David Hackett Fischer’s “Albion’s Seed”.
BTW, both books are worth reading.
dei hire females white copcheif
hey we had leo there in 6 minutes
there is no threat to you
as long as you dont go out and do as lefty tells you
dei hire:

sounds like she is saying
when not being entertained …blmplo forces will do what is second nature to them so we best keep pumping out duh jamz
Ah, but the County elected the County Sheriff, Charmaine McGuffey, who had her department pistol stolen out of her car shortly after being elected. She left it in the glove compartment and parked her vehicle in the driveway of her house. Doesn’t inspire much confidence, does it!
I guess Clinton era basketball courts aren’t doing the job any more.
During her time with the Cincinnati Police Department, Chief Theetge also attended Xavier University where she completed her Bachelor’s degree in Liberal Arts with a concentration in Organizational Leadership and her Master’s degree in Human Resource Development.

Nothing, I repeat, nothing will happen to the perpetrators (at least during my lifetime).
I dint do nuffin’, man.
the had central park five ptsd outrage!!
One informative post by a LI editor, and 9 comments on that one post by destroycommunism. Someone needs to learn that this is not his blog.
you’ve been defeated once again
“Someone needs to learn that this is not his blog.”
When did you become the blog police, Moonmouth?
If I see one more female police chief …
This is beyond a joke.
The police chief is a complete idiot..an enabler. She will allow all to walk as soon as the cameras are off.
Mary, please look up the word “Brawl” so that you won’t misuse it again. If the savages had had a rope it would have been a lynching. One thing I have observed is that many young black men do not have a filter between hurt feelings and death. A good example of this is the black teen who killed a white teen because he told him to leave his team’s tent. WTF would make a person kill over that? They have no self control and go nuclear over nothing. That tells me there is more than racism at play and much deeper cultural issues.
The culture is indeed very different.
Back when I was in grade school, I remember reading a newsmagazine article about Cassius Clay (later Muhammed Ali). It discussed how he trash-talked his opponents before and during fights. Being white, I felt this was the sort of poor sportsmanship that competent referees would disqualify competitors for. Nope, and it wasn’t even his own innovation, that’s just the way blacks grew up playing sports. Yet (and this came later) if you as much as “dissed” a black in different milieu, you were dead right there. As a white, I grew up in a culture of tolerance and temperance (not the alcoholic kind, the general kind). Obviously, others did not.
Society embraced ‘soft Parenting’. The average public school administration/school boards set goofy discipline policies that don’t punish the offender. Same for the ‘justice system’ with diversion plans, no bail requirements and far to much leeway for juveniles. The term is Oppositional Defiant Disorder. Again IMO there’s an entire cohort of folks who’ve never been told ‘NO’ and had immediate consequences for failing to adhere to basic civil behavior.
Go watch some body cam videos of LEO interactions and it is commonplace. The guy in Jacksonville who got into it with LEO and hired Crump to sue? Same thing. Dude gets pulled over for (IMO a BS pretext) no headlights in inclement weather. Refuses to provide DL, IN and registration despite multiple demands. Then locks the doors. Then refuses multiple orders to exit the vehicle. All the escalation is on on him and the many others like him who somehow believe they don’t have to comply then get butthurt when LEO use force to compel compliance.
yes another case where defying the law gets you a great pay day when you are blm
agree
even the nfl got back into that thinking when they started penalizing for bad language etc after decades of on field tribalism allowed
havent watched the nfl for decades
You may not be entirely incorrect in your larger point but trash talking did not start with black athletes. “Bench jockeying” goes way back before 1947 in major league baseball. E. g. read about Babe Ruth’s “called shot” HR in the 1932 World Series.
Perhaps if the police chief was the assaulted woman she would have chosen different words. One should remember that one Aw sh#t erases all your atta boys..
