ASHBURN, Va. (AP) 鈥� A burglary was reported over the weekend at a Virginia campaign office for former President Donald Trump, and authorities are investigating whether anything was stolen.
It happened Sunday at an office in Ashburn being leased by the Trump for President 2024 campaign that also serves as the headquarters of the Virginia 10th District Republican Committee, according to a news release from Northern Virginia's Loudoun County Sheriff鈥檚 Office.
The sheriff鈥檚 office was contacted around 9 p.m. Sunday. The office said it has surveillance video that shows someone wearing dark clothing with a dark cap and carrying a backpack. An investigation continues.
The video shows a person breaking in and going through the office, sheriff鈥檚 office spokesperson Thomas A. Julia said in an email Tuesday. Officials expect to issue an update once more is known, Julia said.
鈥淚t is rare to have the office of any political campaign or party broken into,鈥� Sheriff Mike Chapman said in a statement. 鈥淲e are determined to identify the suspect, investigate why it happened, and determine what may have been taken, as well as what may have been left behind.鈥�
