Several attendees at Donald Trump's rally in Tucson, Arizona, on September 12 have reported experiencing mysterious eye problems after the event. The rally, which drew more than 2,000 people in scorching 100-degree heat, allegedly left some supporters seeking medical attention, with a few even visiting the emergency room.
The Trump campaign has since launched an investigation into the incident. Meanwhile, the Secret Service stated that it had no knowledge of anything unusual happening during the rally and confirmed there were no known threats against Trump in Arizona.
At the rally, 48 exclusive attendees were positioned on stage with Trump, split into two groups—one on the right and one on the left. While the group on stage left reported no issues, several individuals from the group on stage right experienced severe eye pain following the event.
Mayra Rodriguez, a former Planned Parenthood director who now supports Trump, told News 4 Tucson that her eyes began burning, making it difficult to see. She was later treated in the emergency room, where medical staff inquired whether she had been sprayed with a substance. Rodriguez said she remains in pain, describing her vision as "like a white cloud of cover" and explaining that opening her eyes is painful.
Another woman, who preferred to stay anonymous, reported experiencing the same painful symptoms, calling the situation "horrible." A man who also wished to remain unnamed described his eyes as "red like hell" and shared how unbearable the pain was.
Former Congressional candidate Kathleen Winn, who attended the rally, expressed concerns over the incident, telling News 4 Tucson: "We hope there's no nefarious actors in this and this is not a strategic hit." The cause of these eye problems remains unclear as investigations continue.
