Which applies to any weapon which is designed or adapted for the discharge of any noxious liquid gas or other thing.
It is thought that there has been no lasting injuries to anyone who was sprayed with the substance. Although the spray has not yet been identified it has been determined as a PH neutral liquid. Which means it did not have any acid and does not cause lasting injury.
