According to court documents, a woman told an officer she and her daughter 
had attended a demonstration on Saturday, and were going to their parked 
car to leave.

She said counter protesters surrounded her car, and wouldn't let her 
leave. When she got out of her car, a man standing at the back of the 
vehicle punched her in the head, knocking her to the ground.

The officer took pictures of her ear which was bloodied and appeared 
swollen, and that her pants were dirty consistent with a fall.

Police later obtained video of the incident which showed the suspect, 
later identified as Harold Alston Smith, 32, swinging at the woman and her 
falling.

Smith is listed at 6'6" and 245 pounds. He was arraigned Monday on a 
charge of assault, and was released from jail.

This is Smith's second arrest at the ICE facility. He was arrested and 
charged with harassment for an incident on October 9.

According to court documents in that case, Smith approached a protester 
and ripped the walking stick out of his hands, and threw it over a fence.

Police obtained a video showing the incident in which Smith said he can 
"take whatever he wants" before swinging the stick at the man and throwing 
it.

Smith has a 2015 conviction for 4th degree assault out of Washington 
County according to jail records.

November 5, 2024 - Congratulations President Donald Trump.  We look 
forward to America being great again.

We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that 
stupid people won't be offended.

Every day is an IQ test. Some pass, some, not so much.

Thank you for cleaning up the disasters of the 2008-2017, 2020-2024 Obama 
/ Biden / Harris fiascos, President Trump.

Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the 
The World According To Garp.  Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood 
queer liberal democrat donors.
