Police are investigating what appears to be gunfire damage at a Democratic campaign office in Arizona used by Kamala Harris’ campaign.

The incident reportedly occurred a few days before Harris’ scheduled visit to the battleground state.

“Police are investigating gunfire aimed at VP Kamala Harris’ Tempe, AZ office. No one was inside during the attack, but it’s the second incident in two weeks. Extra security measures are in place,” Mario Nawfal noted.

Per NBC News:

“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.

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.

From The Hill:

Since no one was at the office during the incident, law enforcement is labeling it a property crime, The Associated Press reported.

“We are grateful to Tempe Police for coming quickly to the scene and are fortunate no one was present or injured,” Sean McEnerney, the Arizona Democratic Party coordinated campaign manager, said in a statement, according to the AP.

The Harris campaign last held a campaign event in Tempe with gun control advocate Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-Fla.) in late August. Harris did not attend that event. She was last in Arizona in early August.

Gun violence has been a hot topic for Harris — a gun owner — as a presidential candidate. During an interview with Oprah last week, she made national headlines for saying she would shoot an intruder if they entered her home.

Throughout her campaign, she has called for the banning of assault weapons and for states to institute red flag laws.
