Rep. Adelita Grijalva says she was ‘sprayed in the face’ and ‘pushed around’ as agents descended on restaurant
Democratic Rep. Adelita Grijalva says federal agents fired pepper spray at her and others protesting an Immigration and Customs Enforcement operation in Arizona.
In a video posted on social media Friday, Grijalva said roughly 40 federal officers, most of them masked, pulled up in several vehicles for a raid at Taco Giro in Tucson, where a large group of demonstrators had gathered in the street.
There, she was “sprayed in the face by a very aggressive agent” and “pushed around by others,” she said.
She also posted footage of a heavily armored officer firing pepper spray towards her and others in the crowd as she approaches agents and repeatedly tells them “you need to get out.” The footage also appears to show a pepper bullet hitting her feet.



You know multi-tasking is a thing. There’s more than one person in the office that can work on stuff simultaneously. And they almost certainly have someone that posts these types of things to the social media accounts.
Quit acting like there is only one person and they can only do one thing at a time. You just look like an idiot.
