Scotty McCreery is a gentleman.
The country star had just begun his first song of the night at the Colorado State Fair last weekend when he allegedly saw a man in the audience hit a woman, according to video shared on social media.
"That’s a lady you just hit, sir!" McCreey shouted from the stage after he stopped singing and pointed out to the crowd. "Absolutely not. Who just hit the lady?"
He then called for police and security to intervene.
"Is she OK? Get the heck out of here," he said as the crowd began booing at the man who could not be seen in the footage. He was escorted out of the concert.
"On God’s green earth, at a Scotty McCreery show?" the singer asked in disbelief while photos of his wife, Gabi, flashed on the wall behind him because she inspired his song "It Matters to Her" that he had been singing, according to Taste of Country.

He added, "Right now is when the dude gets his @$$ beat."

"Y’all let the cop know who hit the lady cause that’s absolutely unacceptable," McCreery said.
He added, "Whoever you are, that’s the definition of a coward, hitting a lady. Get the heck out of here."
He then got back to the show.
Olga Robak, the director of communications and Public Awareness for the Colorado Department of Agriculture, told FOX 21 "We can confirm that an incident took place at the Scotty McCreery concert where a man assaulted a woman and the performer stopped the show."
"This incident is still under investigation, and we cannot comment further," she said.
Fox News Digital has reached out to reps for McCreery and the police who secured the fair.
In 2019, Gabi McCreery explained that faith is an important part of their relationship.

"Our parents raised us both to know that we are full in ourselves on our own and that’s something I really love about us," she said on Caroline Hobby’s "Get Real" podcast. "We know who we were before we got married. We knew who we were in Christ before we got married."
