Shot FIRED – Authorities Launch Investigation!

FBI Steps in After Shooting

FBI Reportedly Steps in After Shooting

(RepublicanPress.org) – Tensions were high in the weeks leading up to the midterm elections. Politically-motivated incidents have been increasingly prevalent, including a recent attack on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) husband by a deranged intruder. That vicious assault occurred days after a shot was fired at the home of a GOP House hopeful by an unidentified shooter, prompting an investigation by authorities, reportedly including the FBI.

The Carolina Journal (CJ) recently reported that it learned someone fired a bullet into Republican candidate Pat Harrigan’s parents’ home. Harrigan, a former green beret, went up against Democratic state Sen. Jeff Jackson.

CJ spoke with Harrigan’s campaign manager, Brandon Craft, who said that Harrigan’s two daughters, McKinley (3) and Reagan (5), were at the home at the time of the incident. The girls were sleeping a few feet from where the bullet entered by building. Fortunately, neither was injured.

Kristen Hart, a spokesperson for the Hickory Police Department, confirmed that officers discovered “evidence of a bullet casing” at the scene. She said no arrests had been made so far and declined to offer additional information about the incident.

Craft told CJ that local, state, and federal law enforcement officials were investigating the incident. Brett Jensen, a senior reporter at a local radio station, posted a tweet advising that the FBI is looking into the shooting.
