Leigh Kunkle was shot in the face with pepper balls by federal agents while protesting outside the Broadview ICE facility approximately one week before October 3. She recorded video of agents shooting weapons directly at protesters' faces and torsos. After being hit, Kunkle's hand filled with blood from the impact. She is planning to take legal action with her fiancé Kyle Frankovich to hold the federal government accountable for the assault and violations of rights during Operation Midway Blitz.
