TUCSON, Ariz. (KYMA) - One Arizona congress women was pepper sprayed during the ICE raid in Tucson.

Representative Adelita Grijalva posted this video on X, formerly known as Twitter, saying she was pepper sprayed while approaching an ICE raid happening at a family owned restaurant in Tucson, arizona.

Representative Grijalva adds she was met with aggression and says she was treated like this as a member of congress. 

"This is one of the biggest issues we have in this community... Is that we have Trump with no regard for any due process, the rule of law, the constitution. They're literally disappearing people in the streets. They arrested two people. We have no idea where they're going," said Rep. Grijalva in the video.

Representative Grijalva thanks the Tucson Police Department for making sure everyone was safe once ICE left.
