CINCINNATI — A Cincinnati man is recovering after half of his face was fractured during an argument inside a gas station over a face mask Sunday night. One woman now stands charged in the assault, but the victims said they hope other suspects involved will see justice.
Steven Long and James Saylor told WCPO they were assaulted inside a Bond Hill Thornton’s gas station on Reading Road, and it all started over a question about a face mask.
“I was just in complete, utter shock,” Long said.
Long told WCPO he stepped up to the counter to pay, but first asked the clerk a question.
“I asked the clerk, ‘Are you not enforcing the mask rule anymore?’ This woman turned around with some explicit language, and smacked me right in the face,” Long said.
That’s when Saylor said the woman began throwing soda cans, food and fruit at the pair.
“Then she goes to display signs. She’s tearing up the store,” he said.
According to a police report of the incident, 31-year-old Tra’chell Bonner was upset Long asked about mask enforcement.
“She was kicking me in the chest. I’ve never seen, or experienced anything like this,” Long said. That’s when he called 911.
“She has (Saylor) in the corner by the ATM, biting him. I’m trying to get her off of him. I didn’t realize she still has him in her mouth,” he said.
The Cincinnati Police report describes Bonner grabbing a metal sign and hitting Saylor before other suspects got involved. WCPO has requested security footage and 911 calls for the incident.
“They’re stomping all over my body. Intentionally stomping on my head. As soon as the police get there, they scatter. Run. Right past the police, get in their car and leave.”

A feral loser...who knew???
It happened on their property.
I’ve noticed fewer minorities are wearing masks now. They were early adopters but now I think they see it as rebellion
I’m guessing two white boys who made the mistake of punting short.
“Excuse me innkeeper, but your laundress is not wearing the prescribed garment that our esteemed white governor has demanded of her. I demand that you correct her rebellion and put her back into her place”
Nope.
A few months ago my wife and her SIL, both are retired RN s with decades of front line service, and many of us from coast to coast could see the Karens going ballistic and some on our side when forced to wear masks.
So, we all, several families, ordered dozens of low cost mask from Amazon or where ever. We keep some in our cars and at our home entry ways.
We wear the masks, where they ask us too. We don’t drive with them, wear them in our homes nor walk outside with them.
We do tell the Karens, while we are walking without masks on our Cul De Sacs to go to hell if they try to shame us into wearing masks outside in a 5-10 mph breeze.
