Two sprayed with chemical


YOUNGSTOWN

A West Side woman said she and her 1-year-old daughter were sprayed in the face with chemical about 12:30 a.m. Saturday.

Reports said police were called to the first block of South Dunlap Avenue, where the 25-year-old woman told police a woman knocked on her door and asked for a man they both know.

The homeowner told police the woman pushed the door open. The homeowner took her daughter to an upstairs bedroom where the woman found them in a bed and sprayed the chemical spray in their faces before leaving.

Reports said the woman and her daughter had reddened skin on their faces and bloodshot eyes, which is consistent with being sprayed with chemical spray. Both the homeowner and her daughter were treated by paramedics.
