The residence of US Vice President JD Vance in Cincinnati was subjected to an attack during the night, resulting in multiple windows being broken, which necessitated a response from both the Secret Service and local law enforcement.
Agents from the Secret Service arrived at the East Walnut Hills home in the early hours of Monday, and a suspect has been apprehended. However, officials have yet to confirm if any charges have been brought against the person.
According to news outlet WCPO, police said that the suspect was taken into custody but did not disclose any additional information.
Did suspect enter JD Vance’s house?
An official stated that the Vance family was not present at the residence during the incident, and preliminary investigations reported by CNN suggest that authorities do not believe the person entered the vice president’s home.
Law enforcement and secret service agents were seen within the premises following the incident.
Images from local news outlets displayed destruction to the windows. However, the precise nature of the incident remains uncertain.
Officials are looking into the possibility that the occurrence was a deliberate attack on Vance or his family. The US Secret Service has not released any statements so far.
This incident follows increased security measures in the vicinity during the New Year holidays. Roads adjacent to Vance’s home had been shut down for several days leading up to Sunday, with checkpoints established and residents advised to anticipate a law enforcement presence, as reported by city officials.
