Much in the same way as you shoot somebody, not glock them.
Additionally, you have no idea what brand the police were using. To be specific you would say they got pepper sprayed. Saying it was mace is trying to elevate the level of outrage because real mace is a nasty fucking substance.

Chemical Mace is a tear gas in the form of an aerosol spray which propels a lachrymatory agent mixed with a volatile solvent. It is sometimes used as a self-defense device. This form of Mace is legal in very few countries, thus its use is becoming uncommon.
