Shots were reportedly fired into Kamala Harris’ campaign office in Arizona, as confirmed by the Tempe Police Department. The incident occurred after midnight at the Democratic National Committee’s campaign office near Southern Avenue and Priest Drive in Tempe. Damage from the gunfire was discovered, though no injuries have been reported.
The incident occurred just a few days before Harris is scheduled to visit Arizona as she campaigns for president. “We can confirm that on 9/23/24, what appears to be damage from gunfire at … a DNC Campaign Office, was discovered,” Tempe police said in a statement to NBC News on Tuesday.
Police are currently investigating the scene, with detectives analyzing evidence to determine the circumstances. In response to the incident, additional security measures have been implemented in the area to ensure the safety of staff and others working at the office.
Tempe police said that officers responded Monday after calls from workers, and that they observed what appeared to be gunshots through the front windows of the office which is shared by staff members for the Arizona Democratic Party, the Harris campaign and Senate and House campaigns to boost turnout for the party in November.
“No one was inside the office during the overnight hours, but this raises concerns about the safety of those who work in that building, as well as those nearby,” Public Information Officer, Sgt. Ryan Cook said in a statement Tuesday.
