Cody A. Balmer, 38, has been charged with various counts including attempted criminal homicide, aggravated arson, burglary, and terrorism for allegedly starting a fire at the home of Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro. Prosecutors revealed that Balmer climbed the residence’s fence, broke a window with a hammer, and threw Molotov Cocktails inside to start the blaze. The attack occurred early Sunday morning, with Gov. Shapiro and his family inside the home at the time. Fortunately, no one was injured in the fire, but there was substantial damage that was quickly extinguished by first responders. The Dauphin County District Attorney’s Office announced the charges on Monday. The motive behind the attack is unclear, but authorities are treating it as a serious crime due to the potential danger it posed to the governor and his family. Balmer is facing serious charges for his actions and will likely face legal consequences for his alleged attempt to harm the governor and his family. Authorities are investigating the incident further to determine the full extent of Balmer’s involvement and any potential motives behind the attack.
