Man Who Shoved Savanah Hernandez To The Ground: My Family Is Not Violent
Chris and DeYaana Ostroushko appeared on “Pushing The Limits” to give their first interview about the scuffle between them, their daughter, and reporter Savanah Hernandez during an anti-ICE protest in Minnesota.
Savanah, who is a good friend of mine, videoed herself being harassed and then attacked by the Ostroushkos, which ultimately resulted in the much heavier Chris shoving her to the ground while her back was turned.
During the interview with liberal host Brian Shapiro, Chris and DeYaana maintained that Savanah made physical contact first with their daughter, who was blowing a whistle right into Savanah’s ear.
Chris said he and his family are not violent people, “In fact, we tend to shy away from it.” He said he was simply protecting his family since, according to him, Savanah was the one who started the fight.
"I just wanted her to leave,” he claimed.
Chris said the past few days since the fight have been “hell” due to their personal information being shared on the internet. His wife confirmed he lost his job because of his actions in the video.
“This situation was, you know, a family really trying to protect each other,” DeYanna added.

Brian doubted the severity of the injuries Savanah sustained, in particular the ones caused by Chris, because she got up right away and smiled. Savanah said she has been experiencing head, neck, and back pain from the hard shove.
