Ilhan Omar sprayed with unknown substance during Minneapolis town hall

Описание: A man was tackled to the ground and detained after he sprayed an unknown substance at Rep. Ilhan Omar during a town hall in Minneapolis on Tuesday evening, video footage shows. The congresswoman was unharmed and continued her remarks.

Omar — a Minnesota Democrat who is frequently singled out for derision by President Donald Trump — was addressing a crowded room when the incident occurred.

After she criticized the president's immigration crackdown in her state and called on DHS Secretary Kristi Noem to resign, a man near the front rushed to the lectern. He shouted at the congresswoman and doused her with an unknown material. Soon after, the man was tackled to the ground and detained.
