As many as 5,000 of President Donald Trump’s supporters are expected to descend on the nation’s capital Saturday – just days before Electoral College votes are cast – to protest voter fraud in the Nov. 3 presidential election. Electors from all 50 states and Washington, D.C., meet in their respective state capitals Monday to formally cast votes for president based on the popular votes in each state. The demonstration is a way for Trump supporters to express their disillusionment and anger over the election. The permit application estimates upward of 5,000 people will gather on Dec. 11 and 12 in support of Trump, a considerably smaller figure than the tens of thousands who turned out in November.

MIAMI BEACH – The search is on for the person who sucker-punched a Miami Beach man as he waited to cross a road. On November 21st, Cesar Martinez, 70, was at 10th Street and Alton Road when a man walked up from behind and hit him in the back of the head. A Good Samaritan rushed to Martinez’s side to help him as another passerby filmed the man as he walked away. Martinez was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital where he was treated. He told CBS4 he didn’t know the man and had no idea why he attacked. The incident was caught on surveillance video at a nearby Walgreens. Police have reviewed that and the cellphone video of the man captured by the passerby. Martinez celebrates his 71st birthday in four days. He said the best present would be an arrest. Anyone with information is urged to call Crime Stoppers at (305) 471-TIPS (8477).
