Strange I only found a "local newspaper" link to a story that should be in screaming headlines nationwide. Yes, I did look to see if anyone had started a thread on this but found none. Still, not impossible....so if there are multiples, please, moderators moderate and combine threads. Please do not bury this:
Florida county's Republican Party headquarters vandalized by gunfire
Florida county’s Republican Party headquarters vandalized by gunfire
SOUTH DAYTONA, Fla. — The windows of Volusia County’s Republican Party headquarters were found shot out Monday morning, and four bullet holes were discovered inside the offices.
Police were investigating shattered glass and fallen campaign posters that littered the sidewalk outside a strip mall near Reed Canal Park.
Inside, volunteers pointed to bullet holes in the walls and ceiling.
“We have never had any kind of vandalism before at a Republican Headquarters,” Tony Ledbetter, the chairman of Volusia County’s Republican Party, said in an email Monday morning. “It’s a small strip center and no other business was vandalized, so it was obviously politically motivated.”
South Daytona police Capt. Mark Cheatham said the shooting incident happened between 4 p.m. Sunday and Monday morning.
“At this point we can confirm that at least four rounds were fired into the building,” Cheatham said. “We are working to see if we can get video from nearby businesses, but so far we have no witnesses.”
