A seventh suspect has been indicted in the July 26 Cincinnati beatdown that caused a national firestorm after going viral on social media. 

Gregory Wright, aged 32, faces charges of aggravated riot and felony aggravated robbery, as stated in jail documents. His bond is set at ,000 for the riot charge and 0,000 for the robbery charge. As of Monday morning, records show he is still incarcerated.

His next scheduled court appearance is Thursday.

Last week, six of the co-defendants in the case were formally arraigned on new charges in a Hamilton County courtroom. All six now face three counts of alleged felonious assault, three counts of assault and two counts of aggravated rioting.

Montanez Merriweather’s $500,000 bond was upheld. He was hit with a federal gun charge last Thursday, which will be prosecuted separately.

Jermaine Matthews, who was initially released after posting a $250,000 bond shortly after the attack, was granted the same bond amount and is still permitted to go to work. 

Dominique Kittle was then ordered to remain in custody pending a mental health evaluation, but his $250,000 bond was kept the same.

Dekyra Vernon, one of two female suspects, had her bond reduced from $200,000 to $25,000 at 10%. She was ordered to stay away from the downtown area if released. 

Aisha Devaughn also received a lower bond, with the initial amount of $300,000 brought down to $25,000.

On Friday, the sixth suspect in the alleged assault was formally arraigned after being extradited from Georgia. Patrick Rosemond, described as a lifetime Hamilton County resident, was assessed a $500,000 bond. He is alleged to have dealt the knockout blow to the victim named Holly, which can be seen in the viral video. That blow left her with brain trauma, she said.
