Rep. Adelita Grijalva, while getting lunch at Taco Giro, was pushed aside and pepper-sprayed during a large ICE raid

TUCSON, Ariz. — It was supposed to be just another Friday lunch run for newly sworn-in Democratic Rep. Adelita Grijalva, a quick stop at her go-to spot for some authentic tacos in the heart of her Tucson district.

Instead, it turned into a chaotic confrontation with federal agents that left her eyes burning and her community on edge.

Grijalva, still finding her footing after a rocky start to her congressional tenure, found herself in the thick of an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operation that quickly spiraled into what local leaders are calling an unjustified show of force.

Hoping she's got a video of her assault. She can bring a lawsuit if she's got proof to show the court.
