The Pennsylvania State Police is investigating the arson of the governor’s mansion where Gov. Josh Shapiro and his family were sleeping early Sunday.

Shapiro, a possible 2028 Democratic presidential candidate, described the ordeal on a post on X.

Last night at about 2AM, my family and I woke up to bangs on the door from the Pennsylvania State Police after an arsonist set fire to the Governor’s Residence in Harrisburg. The Harrisburg Bureau of Fire was on the scene and while they worked to put out the fire, we were evacuated from the Residence safely by Pennsylvania State Police and assisted by Capitol Police. Thank God no one was injured and the fire was extinguished. Every day, we stand with the law enforcement and first responders who run towards danger to protect our communities. Last night, they did so for our family – and Lori and I are eternally grateful to them for keeping us safe.

State police are taking the lead on the investigation. In a press release, troopers said the Harrisburg Bureau of Fire responded to the Governor’s Residence on North Front Street around 2 a.m.

“While the investigation is ongoing, the State Police is prepared to say at this time that this was an act of arson,” the press release said.

The fire caused a “significant amount of damage to a portion of the residence,” according to troopers. Shapiro and his family were sleeping in a different part of the home, per cops.

Harrisburg fire Chief Brian Enterline told local ABC affiliate WHTM there was flames coming from the first floor of the home when crews arrived and the blaze was quickly contained.

At this point no one has been arrested and law enforcement has yet to release any suspect information. Authorities are offering up to $10,000 to anyone who provides information leading to an arrest.  Anyone with information should call 1-800-4PA TIPS (1-800-472-8477).

The nearly 30,000-square-foot residence was completed in 1968 and has housed eight governors. On Saturday night, Shapiro posted a photo of social media of his family celebrating the first night of Passover.

Shapiro is seen by some as a top Democratic presidential candidate for the 2028 race. He was among the possibilities for the vice president pick for then-VP Kamala Harris in a role that ultimately went to Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.
