Police arrested the man behind a YouTube video narrating a large gathering in Over-the-Rhine Friday night and charged him with violating Gov. Mike Dewine's "stay-at-home" order, officials said.

Rashaan Davis, 25, was arrested on Vine Street Saturday afternoon and charged with a misdemeanor, according to police records.

Videos of Friday's crowd surfaced Saturday morning, depicting groups not following social distancing rules. People can be seen in the videos standing on cars and dancing to music.

"This is how we do it in my city, man," Davis says in one of the videos. "We don't give a f*** about this coronavirus."

Police documents state Davis not only violated the order issued by the Director of Health for the State of Ohio requiring all persons to stay at home except while engaging in essential activities – he also encouraged others to violate the order.

Police referenced a YouTube video in the documents.

"In the video, (Davis) narrates a video of himself and others openly defying the order, causing even greater risk of contamination during this national health crisis," documents state. "At the time of his arrest, there were over 55 thousand views of the post."

Documents state police requested a high bond for Davis.
