According to the US Secret Service, Vance's family was not in Ohio at the time of the incident.

"I appreciate all the kind wishes regarding the attack on our home," Vance wrote in a post on X. "As far as I can tell, some crazy person tried to break in by smashing windows. I am grateful to the Secret Service and Cincinnati police for their quick response. We weren't even home; we had already returned to Washington."

Authorities are investigating whether the individual was stalking Vance or his family, a federal law enforcement official told CNN. They do not believe the individual gained entry to the vice president's home.
