The police have confirmed that a man who was seen in a video that has gone viral assaulting a woman at the graduation ceremony for their son on Wednesday has been arrested and charged.

He is 43-year-old Gary Grant, of a Brown’s Town address in St. Ann.

Grant has been charged with assault occasioning bodily harm.

According to reports, Grant attended a graduation for his son that he shared with the woman, and during the ceremony, the child was given awards for academic excellence.

However, when Grant requested to see the awards, which the mother was holding, an argument broke out and resulted in the woman being shoved.

The video then shows the woman retaliating by hitting the man, which prompted him to slap her in the face several times.

The fight was quickly broken up by onlookers, as they separated both parties.

A court date is being sorted.
