The man accused of attacking Rep. Ilhan Omar with a mystery liquid at a Minnesota town hall allegedly warned a neighbor in advance that he “might get arrested” at the event, a comment that now reads as a chilling prelude to Tuesday night’s disruption.
Anthony Kazmierczak, 55, is accused of rushing the Democratic congresswoman as she stood at the podium addressing constituents and calling for abolishing ICE, spraying an amber-colored, foul-smelling liquid from a syringe in her direction.
The incident unfolded Tuesday night as Omar was speaking at a town hall in Minnesota’s 5th Congressional District. Video footage shows a man in a black jacket lunging toward the podium and discharging the liquid. Omar appeared startled but was not reported to have been injured.
