Gov. Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania and his family were forced to flee from the governor’s official residence early Sunday after an arson attack severely damaged the mansion.

The authorities arrested a man who they said had broken into the mansion in Harrisburg, Pa., and thrown objects into the home that started at least two fires and caused significant damage. No one was injured in the attack.

A 38-year-old man was in custody and will face attempted homicide and aggravated arson charges after setting a fire overnight at Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro's residence, state authorities said at a press conference at the governor's mansion in Harrisburg on Sunday.

A man was arrested after allegedly setting fire to the Pennsylvania governor's mansion as Gov. Josh Shapiro and his family slept inside early Sunday morning.

Balmer will be charged with attempted murder, terrorism, aggravated arson and aggravated assault against an enumerated person, according to officials.

Police in Kansas continue to search for the man who tore off the tip of a person’s finger with his teeth before getting away.

Police said it started when that suspect stole a bottle of alcohol from a bar near 7th and Massachusetts Street in Lawrence. The suspect allegedly stole Fireball from Logie’s on Mass Street, then took off running down Mass St., where he randomly attacked a man and bit off the tip of his pinky finger.

The Network Contagion Research Institute, a nonpartisan organization that tracks online extremist hate, reports that 55% of self-identified leftists believe that murdering President Donald Trump is at least somewhat justifiable.

A disturbing new report reveals that violent political rhetoric online, including calls for the murder of public figures like President Trump and Elon Musk, is being increasingly normalized, particularly on the left.

The report, from the Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI), found that a growing number of people are willing to justify and even applaud killing in the name of politics and a warped sense of social justice. The chilling change appears to have accelerated in recent months.

The unhinged left, fueled by Trump Derangement Syndrome and seething hatred for Elon Musk, is trending more violent, according to a new study that finds political violence targeting President Donald Trump and his billionaire adviser is “becoming increasingly normalized.”
