Shots Fired At DNC Campaign Office – Third Reported Incident


A Democratic National Committee (DNC) campaign office in Arizona was struck by gunfire for the third time in under a month.

The latest incident occurred on Sunday, October 6th.

“On 10/6/24 around 12:30 a.m., the Democratic National Committee campaign office was struck by what appears to be gunfire. No one was inside the building. This is now the third incident at the campaign office,” the Tempe Police Department wrote.

FOX 10 Phoenix reports:

For the third time in less than a month, police say shots were fired at the Democratic Party office in Tempe, and a photo of the suspect’s vehicle has been released.

Since Sept. 16, Tempe Police say there have been three reports of someone shooting at the building near Priest Drive and Southern Avenue. The latest shooting happened on Oct. 6. All of the shootings happened between 12-1 a.m.

Video from the scene showed bullet holes in the glass entryway. Investigators believe the shots came from a firearm or BB gun. No one was inside the office during any of the shootings.

“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,” said Tempe Police Sgt. Ryan Cook.

From the Associated Press:

A $1,000 reward has now been offered for any information leading to the arrest or indictment of those responsible. Police did not provide any other new details in the latest update.

The most recent shooting came days before Vice President Kamala Harris was scheduled to return for another campaign visit to Arizona, this time to host a Phoenix rally on Thursday. The Tempe location is one of 18 field offices the Democratic presidential nominee has in Arizona.

Tempe police have not named a motive. The campaign office once housed a barber shop, and it is located near a daycare and a fitness center in a quiet strip mall.

Police have said they are analyzing evidence from the scene and taking measures to ensure the safety of those who work in the building and nearby.
