Shots were fired into Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign office in Tempe, Arizona.
Police announced on Tuesday they received a call from staffers at the Democratic National Committee Campaign Office on Monday who reported finding what appeared to be gunshots through the front windows.
It was the second such shooting in as many weeks, police said, after the front windows were shot with either a BB gun or a pellet gun just after midnight on September 16.
‘No one was inside the office during the overnight hours, but this raises concerns about the safety of those who work in that building, as well as those nearby,’ Public Information Officer Sgt. Ryan Cook said.
Officers are now investigating every possible motive for the shooting, and are working to analyze the evidence collected thus far, the Tempe Police Department said.
