Donald Trump Stage Jumper Sentenced to One Year Probation
Thomas DiMassimo, who has strong Cobb County ties, tried to disrupt a Trump campaign event in Ohio earlier this year.

The man who tried to rush onto the stage during an Ohio Donald Trump campaign rally earlier this year has been sentenced to one year of probation.
Trump was holding a rally in Dayton in late March, and Thomas DiMassimo tried to reach the podium with the intent on calling the GOP presidential candidate a racist. He was tackled by police before he made it to the podium. He's been charged with several misdemeanor counts of disorderly conduct.
On Tuesday, according to the AJC, DiMassimo received his sentence and was ordered not to attend any Republican presidential event, or possess any firearm.
