A Somerset, NJ man was charged with assaulting an 81-year-old Franklin Township man for wearing a "Make America Great Again" hat, Somerset County Prosecutor Michael H. Robertson announced.

Ryan M. Salvagno, 19, of Amwell Road, Somerset was charged with assault, a disorderly person's offense and harassment, a petty disorderly person's offense were filed in the Franklin Township Municipal Court.

Salvagno grabbed the 81-year-old by the arm and threw him to the ground, tipping over his cart of groceries and throwing the hat to the side, Robertson said.

When Franklin Police arrived on scene they found the 81-year old suffering from minor injuries.

Salvagno is scheduled for arraignment on March 14.

That's right, if it's him, a whopping 7 wins to 40 losses! Which might explain why a pus punk might pick an 81 year old to attack.

#5  If he is convicted will he lose his gun right privileges? Would this state take away gun rights fo a person convicted of hit and run? Come to think of it, this should be charged with hit and run!

#3  if he was 40-7 instead of 7-40, it would still be assault and battery

obviously also a hate crime but in a Dem state there is little chance it will be prosecuted that way

#2  Hey, if he's a wrestler, maybe you could add attack with a deadly weapon to the charges.
