Three arrested over Cincinnati mass brawl that sparked widespread fury...and one of them was out on bond at the time

Cincinnati cops have arrested three people in connection with a savage mass brawl that left two injured over the weekend.

Jermaine Matthews, 39, Montianez Merriweather, 34, and Dekyra Vernon, 24, were taken into custody this week after a couple were violently set upon in the downtown area of the Ohio city on Saturday.

Search warrants have also been issued for two other unidentified people accused of jumping into the shocking melee.

Footage of the altercation swept social media as the couple were seen being beaten on the street near the LoVe nightclub as a crowd gathered.

Cincinnati Chief of Police Teresa Theetge said during a press conference on Monday that around 100 people descended on the brawl, but only one called 911.

'That is unacceptable to not call the police,' she said. 'Traffic was horrendous. People saw this. They were fighting in front of traffic. Why didn't people call us?'

Matthews was charged with aggravated riot and assault, however charges against the other individuals are not immediately clear.

Daily Mail has contacted Cincinnati Police Department for more information on the charges, with Theetge adding that other arrests may come as cops continue investigating the clash.

Not one mention in the long article of it being a vicious black-on-white crime. The only times you see the words “black” or “white” is if it’s about clothes (i.e. black dress).

“Mass brawl”? “melee”?

I don’t think attacks on blacks are described as such.

Is there a racial attack hidden in this?

Q. Would there have been any arrests had this incident not made national news?
A. Probably not.

And this is where I give credit to UK papers like the Daily Mail. They don’t shy away from reporting on stories like this one.

It was not a “brawl “. A brawl would mean a bunch of people fighting each other. This was a merciless mob attack by Black people on a White person. Scott Adams was spot on when he said if you value your safety and the safety of your loved ones pack it up and move far far away from the Akata.

It wasn’t a “brawl”. It was a series of mob attacks and brutal beatings of lone individuals because they are White. We all saw it. You can spare us the BS attempts to deflect from that.

Didn’t the American media ignore the story, apart from Fox News?

That is shocking to me.

Honestly, I don't go to any event that may have the possibility of a large contingent of a certain demographic.

I didn't used to think about it. But now, no frickin' way. Shits out of control.

Cincinnati Chief of Police Teresa Theetge

Thank goodness she was there to heroically issue a meaningless quote and an unpronounceable name. How's your Kung-Fu, dear? Can you help out with the work of law enforcement?

They’ll be back on the street before the ink is dry on the paper.

Yes it was ignored. Fox and daily mail uk covered it.

The only way to get relief is for white people to stop going to events like NFL, NBA, and concerts with likely significant black attendees. When you don’t renew season tickets and are asked why, tell them.

BREAKING - The same Cincinnati police chief, Teresa Theetge, who is attempting to shift blame onto the White people beaten at a jazz festival, is also being sued by officers for discrimination against White males in promotions, assignments, and overtime opportunities.
