Far-right influencer Nick Fuentes is facing accusations of battery after allegedly spraying a woman with pepper spray at his home in Illinois when she went to record a video in response to his controversial social media post. The incident occurred on November 10, and Fuentes was arrested and later released. He is scheduled to appear in court on December 19. The woman, Marla Rose, did not suffer any physical injuries but her eyes were watery. Fuentes claimed he felt threatened after becoming the target of death threats and unannounced visitors to his home following his viral social media post on Election Day. Another witness reported seeing a woman being pushed by a man outside Fuentes’ house. Fuentes posted his mugshots on social media, while Rose hinted at a civil case pending. Fuentes’ personal information was shared online, leading to people showing up at his house unannounced. Rose disclosed Fuentes’ address multiple times in a now-deleted Facebook post. The incident has sparked controversy, with Fuentes claiming self-defense and Rose seeking legal action. The influencer did not comment on the situation.
