Protesters, Republicans accuse each other in scuffle at Cuyahoga GOP HQ
<snip>

CLEVELAND - Republicans and members of a community activist group accused each other of assault Friday after activists tried to deliver a protest letter over challenges to voter registrations at party headquarters in Cuyahoga County.

Members of Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, or ACORN, had similar demonstrations without incident in Columbus and Cincinnati on Friday. Each city had two to three dozen protesters asking the GOP to withdraw statewide challenges to the authenticity of new registrations.

And...

Two female party volunteers told officers that they had locked the glass door, but when they unlocked it to let a worker in, one protester put his foot in the door and another forced his way inside and assaulted them. The ACORN member told officers the women assaulted him, Drummond said. No charges were filed.

Charlene Sinclair, Washington national director for ACORN, said she was standing next to the man and saw the women punch and kick him. "He was more emotionally injured than physically injured," Sinclair said.
