    Recently, a video going viral, showing multiple individuals being violently assaulted in downtown Cincinnati, has prompted Vivek Ramaswamy to criticise the prevalent “anti-law enforcement culture” in American society.The former 2024 presidential candidate and Ohio Republican gubernatorial hopeful discussed with Fox News Digital exclusively on Monday evening before a Cincinnati town hall focused on violence prevention. He stated that the Cincinnati incident has “catalyzed a conversation in our state and frankly across the country about this issue of violent crime in the cities of the United States of America.”He described the assault on Holly, a woman in the video who apparently tried to help another victim, as “totally unconscionable.”The footage shows a group attacking two victims, including Holly, who suffered severe brain trauma. The incident occurred early July 26 at Fourth and Elm Streets, outside a popular nightclub.Ramaswamy mentioned his communication with Holly after initially contacting her about her condition following the assault. He noted that Holly informed him no local elected officials had reached out to her after the incident.The police have identified six victims in total. Six individuals face charges, with four already arrested. The authorities continue searching for two suspects. Police Chief Teresa Theetge reported that among approximately 100 witnesses or participants, only one person contacted law enforcement.The arrested suspects include Jermaine Matthews, 39, Dominique Kittle, 37, Montianez Merriweather, 34, and Dekyra Vernon, 24.Ramaswamy advocates for Americans to feel secure in their cities without fear of assault. He expressed concern about people becoming indifferent to violence and emphasised the importance of addressing these issues through open dialogue rather than avoiding them.He acknowledged criticism for highlighting the incident but maintained that open discussion is crucial for bringing people together and addressing such problems effectively.Sharing the video from the Town hall, Ramaswamy said, “We heard from a mother at tonight’s town hall who lost two teenage sons who were shot & killed in Cincinnati. It’s unconscionable & it’s time to actually do something instead of talking about it.”
