Two little girls were pepper-sprayed in California Tuesday as Donald Trump demonstrators clashed in a heated dispute outside of the city hall in Anaheim.
The city council was preparing to consider a proposal that would formally denounce the Republican frontrunner for his "divisive rhetoric" when a Trump opponent discharged pepper spray on supporters.
Five people, including two girls aged 8 and 11, were treated by paramedics on the scene, police told the Associated Press.
Police accused a man who had been protesting against Trump for the incident. He reportedly ran away following the confrontation and is being sought by police.
The little girls’ faces were covered in tears and they said that their eyes and mouth hurt while a woman wearing a "Make America Great Again" hat helped them, the Associated Press reported.
Trump swept all five states that voted in the Acela primary Tuesday night, winning every county in Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Connecticut, and Rhode Island.
