Investigators said Thursday that they're recommending a disorderly conduct charge be filed against a 15-year-old girl who was pepper-sprayed after she punched a man at a rally for Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump in Wisconsin.
Video of the altercation shows a crowd of people in a parking lot outside the rally in Janesville on Tuesday. The girl can be seen holding an anti-Trump sign and arguing with a 59-year-old man.
The video shows the man turning away with his hands in the air. Seconds later, the girl punches him in the face. Another man wearing a red Trump hat then pepper-sprayed the girl and disappeared into the crowd.
The girl told police the first man groped her breast. But Chief David Moore told reporters during a news conference Thursday that additional video doesn't show any evidence the man groped her and that 12 out of 13 witnesses said they didn't see him do anything.
Moore said the man who was punched didn't want to press assault charges against the girl, but investigators have recommended juvenile authorities charge her with disorderly conduct for what he called "an act of violence." He said time passed between the alleged groping and the punching and the man and the girl were several feet apart when she threw the punch.
The chief said investigators won't pursue charges of filing a false police report against the girl. He said she genuinely believes she felt pressure on her breast. However, he said, quarters were tight and people were brushing up against one another throughout the crowd.
"Clearly her punch was illegal," he said.

Another, Never to be on Yahoo News Story.
This ain’t Flori-duh.
Good!!! About time people started standing up and knocking the crap out of these ‘half wits’!!!
So she’s back to being 15 again?Last story I read said she was 19.
Police know she is 19 or they wouldn’t be considering charging her.
It’s the press who wants us to believe she’s 15.
And then there’s the issue of her parents. Although I was raised in such a manner that I would never use profane language on someone with whom I disagreed and would never have taken a swing at them, if I had, the cops would have been the least of my worries. You have to wonder just where this trashy kid came from.
She’s 15?
And the rally was held on a Tuesday?
Why wasn’t she in school?
Where were her parents?
If charging her will prevent the girl from obtaining Pell Grants for college, I don’t think they should charge her unless she has a history of acting out behavior.
Being pepper-sprayed may have been a sufficient lesson that little girls shouldn’t be at adult functions without a parent
No. they need to charge her and make an example out of her for all the other lefties that go to our political rallies and act out like this.
Fat, dumb, and stupid is no way to go through life, honey.
I'd seen that, too. I guess if they charge her, we'll find out.
..She’s 15?
And the rally was held on a Tuesday?
Why wasn’t she in school?
Where were her parents?...
School? Respect for assault and other laws? Parents?
Are, you kidding?
Lena Dunham wannabe.
If she was conservative there would be no “may” about it.
She’s clearly working on her fat, angry lesbian piggitude.
