I did some searching online and I think this is the story:

Man, also identified as a victim, charged in downtown Cincinnati fight

Video that appears to be early in the confrontation shows a white man and a Black man square off, and then back down. But then the white man slaps the Black man, triggering the melee.

It’s not clear whether that man is the one charged in the incident.

Cincinnati City Council member Scotty Johnson, a former Cincinnati Police officer, said earlier this month he had heard from hundreds of constituents wondering about the lack of charges for the man they see as the instigator.

“Only those investigators in the police department can answer that,” he says. “It’s kind of baffling, but that’s where the answers lie: with them.”

Six of the seven people previously charged face felonious assault and aggravated rioting charges. If convicted, each could face up to around 29 years in prison. The seventh person arrested was charged with aggravated robbery and aggravated rioting, WVXU news partner WCPO reports.

Video of the fight circulated widely on social media, prompting comment from VP Vance and Senator Moreno, as well as Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine to send Ohio Highway Patrol to help CPD.

Guilty pleas as downtown Cincinnati brawl trial set to begin

Videos of the fight went viral on social media. A white man was seen being punched by multiple Black people and falling to the ground, where he is then repeatedly kicked. That man, Alex Tchervinski, was also charged with misdemeanor assault but the charge was dismissed when two witnesses failed to show up to his trial.

Holly was knocked to the ground while attempting to break up the fight.

Looked like he was squared up at the very beginning.

Seemed like a totally separate interaction.
