DHS says Border Patrol agents entered a Cicero parking lot shortly after deploying crowd control measures on Little Village residents. However, there was no explanation as to why video showed a 1-year-old daughter and her family pepper sprayed.

Cellphone video showed the moment Saturday morning Rafael Veraza says he and his family were pepper sprayed by Border Patrol agents in the parking lot of a Sam’s Club in Cicero, just over the city border from Chicago’s Little Village neighborhood.

“He started spraying from the front of the car towards the back. Basically I got sprayed all over my face,” Veraza said.

He said his 1-year-old daughter Arianna, who was riding in the back of the car, also breathed in the gas. Both were briefly hospitalized.
