Former Miss Universe Ireland Fionnghuala O'Reilly was chased by a Trump supporter yesterday in Washington DC as riots unfolded in Capitol Hill.
She said that the man followed and yelled at her for wearing a mask while out for a run.
Taking to social media, the Irish-American model, who works for NASA as a datanaut, said that she was absolutely appalled to see the scenes in the city last night.
Im absolutely appalled. Im still shaken, she wrote on Instagram.
This morning, a man followed me, yelled at me, & chased me down because I wore a mask while on a jog. I had to run away from him to get away.
She also shared a video of the protester shouting at her.
He tells her that his grandmother is elderly and has beat the virus and can be seen running towards her before the video cuts off.
My grandmother is 75 with diabetes and she beat Covid, but here you are, running around with a mask on and like 33. Videotape me, I dont care, the man shouts.
This violence, this chaos is disgraceful. Our city is being terrorized, Ms OReilly wrote later.
