Suspect arrested after ‘damaging’ JD Vance’s Ohio dwelling

A suspect was arrested after allegedly damaging Vice President JD Vance’s home in Ohio early Monday morning.

U.S. Secret Service called for Cincinnati police at 12:15 a.m. after seeing someone “running eastbound” from Vance’s East Walnut Hills home, a dispatcher told FOX 19 NOW.

The suspect broke several of the home’s windows and was detained by Secret Service agents soon after, according to a statement from the U.S. Secret Service.

“The U.S. Secret Service is coordinating with the Cincinnati Police Department and the U.S. Attorney’s Office as charging decisions are reviewed,” the statement said.

Vance and his family are out of town and were not home at the time of the incident, the agency said.

Authorities are investigating whether the suspect was targeting Vance or his family, a federal law enforcement source told CNN. They did not believe the person had entered Vance’s home.

Roads around the vice president’s home were closed for several days leading up to and following New Year’s Day, lasting until Sunday afternoon, according to Cincinnati officials.

The closures are typically in place when the vice president or his family are at the residence, according to The Enquirer. It was not immediately clear why they were in place.
