JD Vance reacts after ‘crazy person’ attacked his Cincinnati home, ‘We try to protect our kids…’

Vance’s home in Cincinnati was targeted, resulting in multiple windows being broken. Secret Service agents arrived at the East Walnut Hills property in the early hours of Monday, and a suspect has been apprehended. Police are yet to reveal if any charges have been filed against the arrested person.

In a post on X, Vance stated, “I appreciate everyone’s well wishes about the attack at our home. As far as I can tell, a crazy person tried to break in by hammering the windows. I’m grateful to the secret service and the Cincinnati police for responding quickly. ”

The US VP further made a request to US media, saying: “We try to protect our kids as much as possible from the realities of this life of public service. In that light, I am skeptical of the news value of plastering images of our home with holes in the windows.”

‘We weren’t even home,’ says JD Vance

Amid concerns about his well-being in the wake of the incident, Vance stated that he was not at home during the attack. He was in Washington, D.C. “We weren’t even home as we had already returned to DC,” he remarked.
