The man told officials that the girl laughed and then ran away. The victim reportedly approached the girl and asked why she punched him before asking a deputy to report the incident.
USA Today reports that authorities interviewed the girl's parents. Video of the incident was reportedly posted to Instagram.
According to USA Today, deputies told the girl's parents that due to the nature of the crime and "that the sole motivation was to strike 'Trump'," detectives may follow up with them.
The girl was kicked out of the fairgrounds and may face charges following an investigation.
