Trial set for Ohio man who rushed stage at Trump rally

DAYTON, Ohio --An Ohio college student still faces trial next month after his arrest for rushing the stage at a Donald Trump rally.

Magistrate Sharon Ovington met Wednesday with both sides for a status conference. A prosecutor told her earlier this month that both sides were discussing "resolution of this matter," but no agreement has been reached yet to avoid trial scheduled for May 31.

Twenty-two-year-old Thomas DiMassimo has pleaded not guilty to a charge of illegally entering a restricted area. It carries a potential one-year prison sentence with conviction.

DiMassimo was arrested March 12 at a Dayton-area rally for the Republican presidential candidate at an airport hangar.

Attorney Jon Paul Rion has said the Wright State University student was only trying to ensure that his political views were heard.
