Exclusive: Republican candidate for Ohio governor Vivek Ramaswamy told Fox News Digital that the violent assault in downtown Cincinnati early Saturday morning "hit close to home."
The brutal attack on Fourth Street and Elm Street triggered national outrage, including from national leaders like Sen. Bernie Moreno, R-Ohio, and Vice President JD Vance after the now-viral video circulated across social media.
The video, which occurred outside a popular nightclub, shows a mob viciously attacking two people, including a woman who was knocked out while bystanders filmed instead of intervening.
"I spoke to Holly earlier today," Ramaswamy said in a social media post, referring to the woman who was knocked out.
