CINCINNATI (WXIX) - Cincinnati’s Black community is demanding the prosecution of everyone involved in the brawl that took place downtown July 26, including the man who appears to be beaten in multiple videos.

Following the indictment of six suspects for their alleged involvement, residents, religious leaders and elected officials still have many questions about the handling of the case and the investigation.

On Monday, those questions and concerns were expressed at New Prospect Baptist Church in the Roselawn neighborhood.

“What incited and who incited the rioting? If the riot is because of a slap, who incited the rioting?” Rev. Damon Lynch said to the crowd.

Lynch had just played one of the videos posted online from the downtown beating on a big screen for the church to see.
