Arson at Pennsylvania Governor’s Residence: Family Escapes Unharmed Amidst Hate Crime Suspicions
Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro and his family were safely evacuated from the Governor’s residence following an overnight arson attack. The fire, which broke out on the first night of Passover, caused significant damage to a portion of the building, though no injuries were reported. State police have launched an investigation and are offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction. The governor and his family were awakened by state police and evacuated before the fire was extinguished by the Harrisburg Bureau of Fire.
