Police: Man assaulted Uber driver on OTR's Main St.

A man is in police custody after an alleged fight with an Uber driver on popular section of Main Street in Over-the-Rhine earlier Sunday morning.

Varun Varma, 27, was arrested and charged with assault and criminal damaging just before 1:30 a.m. Sunday.

Around 1:17 a.m., Varma allegedly hit an Uber driver and struck the vehicle's windshield in the 1200 block of Main Street -- a block that is home to OTR's Park + Vine and Macaroon Bar.

Varma was arrested less that 10 minutes later in the 1200 block of Walnut Street, according to arrest records.

The Uber driver told police that he asked Varma to exit his vehicle, which led to Varma striking his windshield and hitting the driver once or twice in the face, records state. The victim told police his eye was injured in the alleged assault.

Varma will be arraigned in Hamilton County Municipal Court Monday afternoon.
