The mystery brownish liquid US Rep. Ilhan Omar was sprayed with during a chaotic Minnesota town hall meeting late Tuesday is believed to have been apple cider vinegar.
Omar (D-Minn.) was hit with the kitchen staple when 55-year-old Anthony Kazmierczak allegedly stormed the podium as the lefty congresswoman was giving her anti-ICE spiel, Alpha News reported, citing sources.
A hazmat team confirmed, too, that the syringe Kazmierczak allegedly used in the attack was filled with the vinegary substance, the outlet added.
Omar was in the middle of slamming Homeland Security secretary Kristi Noem and calling for ICE to be abolished when Kazmierczak allegedly accosted the lawmaker.
Kazmierczak was spotted allegedly spraying the amber-colored liquid over her chest soon after he charged toward her while yelling.
The alleged perp was quickly nabbed by Minneapolis cops on assault charges.
