Authorities have identified at least four suspects in a violent brawl that took place in downtown Cincinnati, police sources tell Fox News.

FOX 19 reported that the fight took place on Friday night between Elm and Fourth Streets, with videos of the brawl going viral on social media.

Video circulating around social media shows two people attacking a man wearing a white t-shirt, who is eventually shoved to the ground. The man wearing a white t-shirt was kicked several times while he was on the ground, but eventually gets up.

A woman was also seen laying unconscious in the street after being punched. Several people can be seen helping her get up, and she eventually regained consciousness.

“The behavior displayed is nothing short of cruel and absolutely unacceptable,” she said in a statement. “Our investigative team is working diligently to identify every individual involved in causing harm. It’s also important to clarify: this was a sudden dispute between individuals following a verbal altercation.”

DOJ Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon posted on X that the agency would “monitor closely” how local authorities handle the attack.

“Nobody in our great nation should be the victim of such a crime, and where race is a motivation, federal law may apply,” Dhillon added.

People with information are asked to call the Cincinnati Police Department or Crime Stoppers at 513-352-3040.
