Rep. Adelita Grijalva, an Arizona congresswoman, has alleged that she was pepper-sprayed by ICE agents during a raid at a Tucson restaurant, an incident that occurred amid heightened federal enforcement activities in Southern Arizona. The confrontation reportedly took place as Grijalva was protesting the ICE operation, which involved multiple arrests at various locations, including Taco Giro restaurants. Video footage of the incident has emerged, although ICE has denied the claims made by Grijalva.
