Gunshot Fired at Republican Attorney General’s Office

Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares is widely considered a rising star within the Republican Party.

Since being sworn into office in January, he’s received a wave of good publicity. However, today news came from Virginia state capital that no one wants to hear.

An unknown perpetrator fired a single gunshot into a window at Miyares’ office in Richmond.

Capitol Police are investigating, as The Daily Wire reports:

“Capitol Police were called to the Barbara Johns Building at 7:13 p.m. Monday for a report of a bullet that may have been fired into the building from outside,” Public Information Officer Joe Macenka told The Daily Wire on Tuesday evening. “Officer found a bullet in a sixth-floor office that also had a small round hole near the top of a window.”

Macenka added that officers had no further comment at this time.

In an email to the attorney general’s office viewed by The Daily Wire, Chief Deputy Attorney General Chuck Slemp informed colleagues that “a single round from a firearm was shot into a window of the Barbara John s Building.”

“The round was located by housekeeping staff last night,” Slemp wrote. “The Capitol Police is actively investigating. There is no indication that this incident was targeted at the OAG specifically or any individual employee.”

Over the weekend, Miyares had weighed in on a pro-abortion group’s threats to disturb Catholic masses on Mother’s Day with protesting.

    Hopefully it was, from the description, an unfortunate misfire, being a small hole in the ‘top’ of a window! Sounds like an accidental discharge not aimed at anyone.

    It is a ……FEDERAL CRIME …… to do so!

    I wonder if the seditious DOJ/FBI knows?

    Accidental??? To me odds are against it in my opinion. More like someone trying to intimidate. Time these punks are dealt with…..including those in government egging it on.

    This is the way of the violent, hate filled commie dems. Sometimes you have to fight fire with fire. And believe me, it’s coming soon.
