MAGA influencer Nick Fuentes accused of assaulting woman outside his home

A Chicago area woman has claimed she was pepper sprayed and pushed down the stairs after going to the home of right-wing activist Nick Fuentes to confront him about the sexist comments he made online after Donald Trump was elected president last week.
Marla Rose claims the unapologetic chauvinist — who last week coined the phrase “Your body, my choice,” in celebration of a presidential outcome that will likely impact reproductive freedoms for women — doused her with “a burning liquid” she believed to be pepper spray when she went to his home on Sunday.
Fuentes’s suburban Illinois address was posted online after he made his incendiary remark last week.
“I rang the doorbell, he immediately swung the door open like he was at damn Waco,” Rose wrote on Facebook, as seen in screenshots shared online.
After allegedly spraying her with some sort of irritant, Rose claims the MAGA influencer pushed her down his steps and onto the sidewalk, grabbed her phone and retreated into his house. Rose posted a photo of the alleged incident online and claims to have video of the encounter.
A witness, who Rose says encouraged her to ring the doorbell, notified police. Rose says she plans to contact a lawyer about the alleged assault.
Rose’s husband told the Daily News by phone that he and his wife have been bombarded with hateful phone calls from Fuentes supporters. Some of those calls have been antisemitic in nature, he said.
He added their home, which is just a few miles from where Fuentes lives, was swatted by police who’d been alerted to “suspicious activity” occurring there Tuesday morning.
Though Rose’s phone was damaged in the incident on Sunday, her husband said they were still able to retrieve the video showing Fuentes bringing the device inside his home and stomping on it. Cops had retrieved the phone when taking their report.
Rose said it was only her intention only to see what Fuentes’s home looked like before the passerby encouraged her to knock on the door and ask him to explain his comment about reproductive rights.
She told her husband she simply said, “Oh, hi,” before Fuentes — without saying anything in response — sprayed her.
Police in Berwyn, Ill., where the alleged incident took place, have not returned a request for comment. Rose said online that she told an officer she’d been assaulted and the cop said, “Well, you went to his door.”
Rose could not be contacted directly due to the condition of her phone.
Fuentes hasn’t addressed the encounter other than sharing a supportive X post from fellow right-wing activist Tristan Tate.
“Nobody should be turning up at any bodies house uninvited,” Tate posted Monday. “Harassment.”
