Officials in Cincinnati have charged the white man beaten by multiple blacks with a crime related to the July 26 late-night racial street brawl.
As Fox News reported, on Wednesday, authorities charged the unidentified 45-year-old white man with disorderly conduct for his part in the fight.
Police are not legally allowed to identify the man at this time. Under Marsy's law, victims of crimes are allowed to have their names withheld from the public.
According to the Fox report, authorities did not indicate what the man specifically did to warrant a disorderly conduct charge.
The charge comes after black community leaders in Cincinnati last week demanded the white man's prosecution, citing a video appearing to show him slapping one of the black individuals before the all-out assault.
As the Gateway Pundit reported, those leaders said the footage proved the white man should be facing at least the same charges as the six black Cincinnatians who brutally beat him and a white woman, Holly, who had tried to intervene to stop the melee, which left six people injured altogether.
At a press conference Aug. 11, Senior Pastor Tracie Hunter of the Western Hills Brethren In Christ Church demanded that the bald white man face criminal charges after citing the charges that had been filed against the black participants.
"Because those six individuals were charged with aggravated assault, which is a felony, the white guy incited or urged six other people to commit a felony, which means based on part B of the statute, he should be charged with inciting to violence, a felony of the third degree," Hunter claimed.
"If the riot is because of a slap, who incited the riot?" asked Rev. Damon Lynch. "Why are the only people being charged are the ones who look like me?"
Other black elected officials have made inflammatory statements about the incident, with Councilwoman Victoria Parks of Cincinnati saying the victims in the brawl "begged for that beat down," drawing calls for her resignation.

People who are in the United States on student visas have participated in events that left assault cases on their records.
Or burglaries cases, and DUIs, even records of support for terrorism.
And now 6,000 times, those visas have been pulled.
"Every single student visa revoked under the Trump administration has happened because the individual has either broken the law or expressed support for terrorism while in the United States," a senior State Department official said in a statement to Fox News.
"About 4,000 visas alone have been revoked because these visitors broke the law while visiting our country, including records of assault and DUIs."
Those whose records now includes assault – about 800 – either faced arrest or charges stemming from an assault.
Between 200 and 300 cases involved "support for terrorism," and they engaged "in behavior such as raising funds for the militant group Hamas, which the U.S. State Department has designated as a terrorist organization," the official told Fox.
Some of the cases that have developed so far in 2025 also are for overstays.
"The Trump administration has launched multiple initiatives aimed at cracking down on immigration and revoking visas of those attending academic institutions in the U.S.," the Fox report explained. "Those who've publicly protested supporting Palestine have faced heightened scrutiny, as one example, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in May that the administration was reviewing the visa status of students."
The Department of State said overall, about 40,000 visas have been canceled in 2025, up from 16,000 during the same time period under Joe Biden's Washington regime.
The State Department official said the revocation of visas isn't new.
But Secretary of State Marco Rubio has explained, "We're going to continue to revoke the visas of people who are here as guests and are disrupting our higher education facilities."
According to the report, Democrats complained the Trump administration, by enforcing the law, is violating due process.
The Trump administration already has taken several steps to other accountable those who violate U.S. law, including "unlawful anti-Semitic harassment and violence."

In the aftermath of the COVID-19 mandate era, tens of thousands of service members who were forced to leave the U.S. military, or who left on their own over the issue, are now being invited back. However, relatively few have expressed a desire to return to a military that, not long ago, trampled on their freedoms.
On July 26, Stuart Scheller, senior adviser to the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness, turned his focus to the reinstatement process. While many commended him for his effort, he also made a statement that heightened the concerns of those who were negatively impacted by the 2021 mandate and who continue to demand that some senior military leaders be held accountable for illegally enforcing the experimental shot.
"… [M]any who exited the service because of poor treatment over the shot refusal want retribution. I get tagged every day with posts questioning when commanders at every level of the military will be thrown in jail for 'illegally enforcing the COVID vaccine.' That's not going to happen. Time to move forward."
Two days after Scheller's statement, this reporter emailed him requesting clarification of what could be interpreted as saying military leadership will not be held accountable for enforcing the "unlawful as implemented" mandate. To date, no response has been received from Scheller.
WorldNetDaily spoke to retired U.S. Army Lt. Col. Darin Gaub, a former UH-60 Black Hawk pilot and battalion commander.
"Quite disappointed" by Scheller's lack of response, Gaub said, "Those who have risked a lot and lost a lot in the fight for liberty are begging and asking for transparency from every agency." Service members and veterans, as well as the American people, want "absolute truth and honesty from everybody involved," he added.
Failure to demand accountability on behalf of the tens of thousands of service members adversely affected by the COVID-19 mandate is "a break in trust with the very people who make the military what it is," said Gaub. "It doesn't matter what else you do, because if you break trust and refuse to restore it to the people who make up the military, your military will never be as strong and as sound as you want it to be."
"You have to have accountability to restore trust," he added, "and those who willingly and knowingly violated laws and ethical standards to push the jabs need to be held accountable regardless of rank or position." Whatever "the smoke and mirrors or the cover story" military leaders who enforced the mandate try to create, he said, "they need to be held 100 percent accountable."
"If that doesn't happen, especially in the four years of this [Trump] administration, you will never see trust restored," Gaub stressed, because without real accountability, "they'll miss any chance of rebuilding the backbone of what makes the military strong and what makes it lethal."
What would accountability look like? For Gaub, it would mean some senior military leaders considered for courts-martial. He would even advocate that such proceedings be televised, to show the American people that law breakers, even in the military, will not be tolerated. In addition, he said, "their retirement grade should be based on their last known honorable conduct," which would have occurred before the now-rescinded 2021 vax mandate.
Bottom line, said the former Army chopper pilot and battalion commander: "If you can't promise the people sitting at home that their children will not be put in the same position and not have to suffer the consequences" of upholding their moral and religious convictions to object to an unproven and experimental shot, "you'll never have the best and brightest of America go into a system that's going to chew them up and spit them out."
On the other hand, WND also spoke to an Air Force officer who agreed with Scheller. A fighter pilot affected by the mandates, and who asked to have his name withheld for this story, he considers it "impractical to fire people or anything else of the sort, [arguing that] just because they violated 10 U.S.C. § 1107a does not mean they have criminal liability." The U.S. Code should have required informed consent for the "emergency use" of the COVID-19 shot. However, this was not provided to service members.
Despite the law, he suggested, "the Defense Department's best policy for righting wrongs is in a large-scale policy change for vaccines."
According to the Air Force officer, "We are not in a place to fire tons of people, nor do we need to." He agreed that investigations need to be done, but said, "our [military] community is asking way too much, taking a major win [with the Trump administration only to] squander it with a lot of unreasonable requests that will only alienate the administration."
Having survived the COVID era with the ability to continue serving his country, the Air Force officer said, "It can't always be perfect, and if I've learned anything from this fight, you have to take small wins by baby steps and make influential friends in the process, even if they don't agree on your end state."
The Air Force officer stressed his views do not represent those of the Department of Defense or Department of the Air Force.
Regarding the series of questions submitted to Scheller by this reporter, the Air Force officer said he is particularly interested in knowing how service members can be assured that a similar illegal and harmful mandate will not happen again, as it did in both the anthrax and COVID-19 eras.
"While I share the Department of Defense's desire to move forward," he acknowledged, "I would like to see some significant increases in medical freedom in the DoD." For example, he noted, "There's no reason to lose service members over a flu shot or a Japanese encephalitis vaccine."
Finally, Gen. Mike Flynn, former national security adviser at the start of Donald Trump's first term as president, just posted on X about an open letter, titled "Declaration of Military Accountability," having been officially entered into the Congressional Record. Signed by 231 active service members and veterans, the letter demands accountability over the Defense Department's highly controversial enforcement of the now-rescinded COVID-19 vaccine mandate.
The signatories state, "In the coming years, thousands within our network will run for Congress and seek appointments to executive branch offices, while those of us still serving on active duty will continue to put fulfilling our oaths ahead of striving for rank or position.
"For those who achieve the lawful authority to do so, we pledge to recall from retirement the military leaders who broke the law and will convene courts-martial for the crimes they committed."

The starting quarterback for the New York Jets, Justin Fields, recently explained to the media what has helped renew his outlook on life and his career: his "low-key addiction" to reading the Bible.
The 26-year-old was asked about what has helped him in making a fresh start with the Jets, taking over this year for veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
"Really getting closer to God, like I said, my relationship, me reading the Bible every day, and if I'm being real, there are some great lines and great wisdom that I didn't even know of. So I'm low-key addicted to getting in my Bible every day just because I learn something new and I'm able to apply it in my everyday life," said Fields.
"I wish I would have started earlier. So I encourage you all to go read a little bit. Start in Proverbs and move on from there," Fields added.
Out of Ohio State, Fields signed a two-year, $40 million contract with the Jets after playing on the Pittsburgh Steelers last year.
A seemingly large percentage of NFL quarterbacks are professing Christians. WND columnist Jack Cashill delved into the issue in 2020.

A major U.S. newspaper with insider financial ties to local politicians now is doxxing critics of the city's crime agenda – or lack thereof.
It is the Federalist that has published a report exposing the suspect activities of the Denver Post.
It has targeted – and exposed the names, home addresses and more – of those participating in an organization that sought to review public records about crime in the infested city.
The report charged that the Post even published employment information about "three private citizens who legally obtained public information" that later appeared in the social media account called Do Better Denver.
"The Post identified the three people it doxxed by doing a public records request for those women's public records requests," the report explained.
It was "crime reporter Shelly Bradbury" who named names in her recent article.
From Do Better Denver was the comment, "I have been informed that the Mayor's office were the ones that looked at all the CORA requests over the last two years and tried to figure out who I am based on CORA requests and my posts (based on who was requesting them). The Mayor's office narrowed it down to three names and FED the story to the @denverpost and told their contact at the Post to CORA the CORA requests in hopes of outing me and getting the media and my followers to turn on me. The Mayor's office said that @mikejohnstonco wants DoBetterDNVR gone because 'I am ruining his narrative'. Is it legal for government officials to try and silence me via doxxing? Or engaging the Denver Post to do so? #Yikes #IsThisLegal #DoBetterDNVR."
The Federalist's Mollie Hemingway said:
And Do Better Denver responded:
It also noted Denver's "body count" is on the rise, again:
Jill Osa, one of those named, said Bradbury "doxxed me and two others" but "indefensibly" failed to tell the real story:
Further, Bradbury engaged in "bad, unethical journalism," the social media statement charges.
Interestingly, the city, with hundreds of millions of dollars in budget deficits, is laying off staff that grew by 4,000 individuals receiving paychecks over recent years under Democrat administration.
Colorado also is a Democrat stronghold, with a Democrat governor, majority-Democrat Senate and House, and an all-Democrat state Supreme Court that wildly assumed it could order President Donald Trump off the 2024 election ballot before being scolded by the U.S. Supreme Court.
The report noted the city "has a $44 million rental contract from 2024 through 2029 with the Denver Post's parent company … and in 2024 approved an $89 million contract to go into debt to purchase the same former Denver Post building."
Do Better Denver charges the city sought the newspaper's participation in the doxxing because officials were "angry about public disclosures of their activities."
"One public record one of the women discovered, for example, showed the city paid $2.1 million for vacant rooms for illegal immigrants," the report said.
No comment from a spokesman for Mayor Mike Johnston.
The Post claimed the government "played no role" in the newspaper's agenda against the Do Better Denver individuals.
An administrator for Do Better Denver confirmed in the report it gets death threats "for posting public records about people with criminal records that include kidnapping, battery, and work for terrorist gangs such as Tren de Aragua."
The Post confirmed the mayor's office ordered police to stop r0esponding to public records requests from Do Better Denver, and the staff in the mayor's office switched in an app that automatically deletes messages.
The DBD's accounts on social media have addressed problems in the city with indecency, vagrancy, crime, and its accounts are followed by 150,000 people.
"The accounts criticize public officials for sanctuary city policies inviting gang activity, releasing violent criminals on low bonds, and otherwise enabling public disorder. Denver has sued the Trump administration for opposing such policies," the report said.
It was the Post's recent doxxing that said it knew the names of some of those who supply DBD with information: "Arizona resident Jill Osa, Denver resident Megan Anderson and New Mexico resident Alexandra Pacheco."
Osa explained, "I'm just an average citizen who wanted answers and wasn't getting them when she went to her elected officials."
On the website has been criticism of the city's pro-illegal alien agenda, and voters are soon going to be asked to raise their own taxes by $1 billion for "affordable housing."
Bradbury claimed the site provides "misinformation" and she was backed up by the leftist Poynter Institute, which runs "one of the most notorious mass censorship organizations, the egregiously politicized Politifact," the Federalist confirmed.

The Court of Appeals of Tennessee, located in Nashville, has struck down a municipal ordinance that limited the number of customers who could visit a home-based business.
It is invalid because it discriminated based on the type business it was.
According to a report from the Institute for Justice, which fought on behalf of record producer Lij Shaw and hairstylist Pat Raynor, Nashville's rule allowed the two only six client visits a day at their businesses.
And then the city came up with "invasive and burdensome requirements."
However, other businesses based in homes, such as short-term rentals, home daycares, historic homes and more, were allowed to have 12 or more clients daily, "free from additional requirements."
"This kind of arbitrary favoritism has no place under the Tennessee Constitution," explained Paul Avelar, a lawyer for the IJ. "Lij and Pat have a constitutional right to use their homes to earn an honest living. But Nashville treats their home-based businesses worse than other, privileged, home-based businesses for no real reason."
The lawsuit stems from the city's 2017 attacks on the two businesses, in which it shut them down.
Then came COVD, and the city allowed them to have six client visits daily.
Now a unanimous ruling from Judges Frank Clement, Andy Bennett, and Jeffrey Usman agreed with the claims that the city had not offered good reasons for favoring some home business over others.
The ruling said, "Metro has offered no rational reason for the difference in treatment that is relevant to the purpose of the law."
The case already has been to the state Supreme Court, which rejected a lower court's dismissal and reinstated it for further opinions at the lower court level.
At first, the lower court claimed the limits were "constitutional because they were rationally related to the city's interests in preserving the residential nature of neighborhoods."
The appeals ruling noted that the city changed its code during the time period that the lawsuit was pending. But throughout the proceedings the city exempted short-term rentals, home-based daycares, historic buildings and such.
The case ended up addressing the city's irrational decision to distinguish between different types of home-related businesses.
"Plaintiffs argued that there was no rational reason that was relevant to the purpose of the law for distinguishing between their businesses and the Exempt Businesses. In support, Plaintiffs produced evidence that their businesses had no more of an impact on the residential character of neighborhoods than the Exempt Businesses," the ruling said.
The opinion noted the city didn't even try to dispute that.
The city had responded to the unequal treatment concerns by stating that it did allow customer visits, but did "not explain what relevance this has to plaintiff's equal protection claim.'
"We conclude that Plaintiffs' businesses are similarly situated in all material respects to home-based daycares, historic-home event venues, owner-occupied STRPs, and home based businesses on property rezoned as SP districts with respect to the purpose of the law," the appeals court said.

Vice President JD Vance is predicting "a lot of people" will get indicted in connection with the Trump-Russia collusion hoax that has come to be known as Russiagate.
Appearing on "Sunday Morning Futures" with Maria Bartiromo on the Fox News Channel, Vance said: "I absolutely want to see indictments."
He indicated U.S. intelligence agencies "defrauded the American people" on behalf of Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign against then-candidate Donald Trump.
"They actually laundered Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign talking points through the American intelligence services," Vance explained.
"That's a violation of the people's trust, that's a violation of what our intelligence services be doing, and I absolutely think they broke the law and you're gonna see a lot of people get indicted for that."
"Here's the thing that should really bother the American people," Vance continued. "What do you want our intelligence community to be doing? I want them to be catching bad guys. I want them to make sure terrorists aren't going to one killing innocent American civilians.
"I don't want them laundering Hillary Clinton's campaign talking points into the American media and giving them this air of legitimacy.
"It is sick and it's disgusting. It hurt the intelligence community, it hurt the American people and it hurts the first Trump administration. We've got to have consequences for it, or we're just gonna see the same play repeated again."
As WorldNetDaily reported last week, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi signed an order launching a grand jury investigation into the beginnings of the Democrats' Russiagate conspiracy against Trump, a scheme that carried through the entirety of his first presidency, during the four years before his second term, and even today has some extremist adherents.

A federal appeals court has handed a victory to the owners of a family farm – now shut down – that was attacked, prosecuted and convicted by a federal agency that claimed the authority to act as both prosecutor and judge.
According to the Institute for Justice, the victory for Sun Valley Orchards' owners comes from a panel of the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.
That unanimous ruling was that the actions of the Department of Labor violated the Constitution and the charges against the farm had to be brought to a neutral court.
The federal agency had imposed some $500,000 in penalties, mostly for paperwork mistakes, in the case. Then the agency went to its own court, prosecuted and convicted the owners.
"The Department of Labor (DOL) first targeted Sun Valley Orchards for penalties in 2016, beginning a years-long legal odyssey through the DOL's administrative courts. Sun Valley's owners, Joe and Russell Marino, teamed up with the Institute for Justice (IJ) to file a federal lawsuit challenging DOL's system of in-house courts in 2021," the IJ said.
"The upshot of the Third Circuit's decision is that the days of the Department of Labor imposing liability through its own in-house courts are over," explained IJ lawyer Rob Johnson. "Employers will have the right to defend themselves before a real judge, not an agency employee. That's a win for basic fairness and for small businesses across the country."
The IJ reported the victory followed the Supreme Court's precedent in Jarkesy, v. SEC, a case that similarly challenged an administrative court system at the Securities and Exchange Commission.
That ruling said the SEC was required to press its case in a federal court in front of a jury.
"This is a huge relief for my family, after years spent fighting for a fair chance to clear our name," said Joe. "We've been dragged through the mud, and it seemed impossible to fight back."
Because of the years-long and costly fight against the agency's warfare, the family shut down their farm several years ago.
"Today's decision vindicates a right of enormous importance to everyone in America." said IJ Attorney Bob Belden. "When a federal agency wants to take your money as punishment, it must prove its case against you in a real court, not in agency courts where the government plays investigator, prosecutor, judge, and jury."
The IJ said it also is representing a Maryland landscaping company that also is challenging the DOL in-house adjudication agenda.

It's unfair, it's wrong, it's "gerrymandering" when Republicans do it.
But it's "democracy" when the perpetrators are Democrats.
That odd bit of hypocrisy is courtesy Barack Obama, who this week joined in an orchestrated campaign by Democrats to condemn a redistricting proposal in Texas.
It would, if fact, give GOP members a higher probability of winning some seats, analysts have said.
Obama wrote, "We can't lose focus on what matters – right now, Republicans in Texas are trying to gerrymander district lines to unfairly win five seats in next year's midterm elections. This is a power grab that undermines our democracy."
However, Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, pointed out the two different definitions of redistricting, or gerrymandering, Democrats, including Obama, trot out.
Democrats "only call it 'gerrymandering' when it's in a Republican state," he explained. "When it happens in Illinois, they call it 'democracy.'"
A report on the politicking by Obama, in Twitchy, cited a 2012 article in the New Yorker in which Obama confessed that his own national political career "was launched with the assistance of gerrymandering that Barack had a personal hand in helping with."
The report confirmed, "In 1996, during his first run for office, in the Illinois State Senate, Obama defeated his former political mentor Alice Palmer by successfully challenging her nominating petitions and forcing her off the ballot, effectively ending her career. A few years later, Illinois Democrats, after toiling in the minority in the Senate, gerrymandered the state to produce a Democratic majority. While drafting the new political map, Obama helped redraw his own district northward to include some of Chicago's wealthiest citizens, making the district a powerful financial and political base that he used to win his U.S. Senate seat, a few years later."
