    ( NewsNation ) — Country music singer Scotty McCreery stopped his concert over the weekend to help a concertgoer who was allegedly assaulted by a man in the audience.

    A video posted online by concertgoer Jessica Rosario shows McCreery pause the show during the intro of his song “It Matters To Her” at the Colorado State Fair on Saturday.

    “Right here, that’s a lady you just hit, sir,” McCreery said in the video, pointing out the alleged assailant. “Absolutely not, you just hit the lady. Police? Security? Is she OK? Get the heck out of here.”

    He added: “On God’s green Earth. At a Scotty McCreery show? What are you doing? Y’all let the cop know who hit the lady. That’s absolutely unacceptable.”
