Shooting took place at American Vice President JD Vance‘s residence in the United States. Shots were heard at midnight 12.15 at local US time in East Walnut Hills. Vance was not at the house when the shots were fired.
Police confirmed that one person was taken into custody following the shooting. Several windows of the house were damaged due to gunfire. The incident occurred at Vance’s Cincinnati, Ohio residence, though none from his family were present inside the house.
The Vice President had left the house on Sunday afternoon. Images shared by local residents showed that multiple windows were broken during the attack. Authorities have not confirmed whether the shooting was specifically aimed at Vance or his family members.
Police officials stated that the arrested person is currently being interrogated. So far, the motive behind the shootout remains unknown. Investigators are continuing to gather evidence and question witnesses connected to the incident.
The incident shocked the US and J D Vance’s neighbours in Cincinnati. Following a shootout involving US President Donald Trump during his pre-election campaigning, the attack has raised concerns over the security of top US leaders.
For now, the secret service and the police have moved out from Vance’s residence. Security monitoring continues in the area. The investigation remains ongoing as authorities work to determine the full sequence of events.
