Texas police search for man who threw punch in viral video

A man told police that a Donald Trump supporter sucker-punched him outside a Texas convenience store in an incident that was captured on a viral video Saturday afternoon. Denton police asked for the public’s help in identifying the man who committed the assault in a Buc-ee’s parking lot.

The video shows a man in a hat yelling profanities at the victim and screaming "Turn it off!” as an anti-Donald Trump rap song by YG appeared to be playing in the background. The suspect, who was standing with other men who were wearing Trump T-shirts, then punched the victim in the face.

The victim, whose identity was not released, suffered a broken tooth and a wound under his right eyebrow, police said, according to news outlets. Officers were dispatched about 12:40 p.m. to a local hospital and spoke with the victim about the incident. Denton police did not release details about whether a pro-Trump rally was taking place at the time. Police Chief Frank Dixon said the assailant was last seen driving a dark-colored Dodge Ram pickup.
