Suspect Detained After Vandalism At Vice President JD Vance’s Cincinnati Home

One suspect is in custody Monday morning after vandalizing Vice President JD Vance’s Cincinnati home.

U.S. Secret Service agents assigned to Vance’s protective detail detained a man on the property shortly after midnight after finding several broken windows at the home. The suspect was later turned over to the Cincinnati Police Department.

Authorities said Vance and his family were not home at the time of the incident and were not in Ohio.

Multiple news outlets have confirmed the vandalism, but officials have not released the suspect’s identity or a possible motive. No injuries were reported.

In a post on X, Vance thanked law enforcement and supporters for their responses and messages of concern.

“I appreciate everyone’s well wishes about the attack at our home,” Vance wrote. “As far as I can tell, a crazy person tried to break in by hammering the windows. I’m grateful to the Secret Service and the Cincinnati police for responding quickly.”

Vance also urged the media to exercise restraint in covering the incident, citing concerns for his children.

“We try to protect our kids as much as possible from the realities of this life of public service,” he wrote. “In that light, I am skeptical of the news value of plastering images of our home with holes in the windows.”

The Secret Service has not indicated whether the damage was targeted or random, and the investigation remains ongoing.

While agents responded quickly, the incident is likely to raise fresh questions about the security vulnerabilities of high-level government officials, including the president and the vice president.

    I guess the SS needs to step up their game. The Democrats are getting even more insane.
