HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — A man is facing charges after authorities say he broke into the Pennsylvania governor’s mansion in the middle of the night, set a fire that left significant damage and forced Gov. Josh Shapiro, his family and guests to evacuate the building during the Jewish holiday of Passover.

Firefighters extinguished the fire early Sunday morning and no injuries were reported. The suspect, identified as Cody Balmer, 38, was arrested nearby later in the day, police said.

Authorities said they were investigating how someone was able to elude police to break into the governor’s residence in Harrisburg.

Pennsylvania State Police Col. Christopher Paris said the fire was a carefully planned attack but emphasized the investigation is continuing. He did not give a possible motive.

This craziness has to stop.   I can’t believe some individuals justify the murder of the CEO last December, the assassination attempts on Trump. Now attack and attempted murder of  the PA Governor and his family.   Demonizing people because they don’t believe as you, we’ve lost our moral compass as a Nation and God help us if we don’t find it soon.
