Cody Balmer told police he poured gas from a lawnmower into Heineken beer bottles and then walked to the mansion. After scaling a 7-foot fence, he smashed the window of a piano room and tossed the first Molotov cocktail inside. Then he smashed his way into the residence, set the dining room ablaze and fled. Balmer told police he was prepared to beat Gov Josh Shapiro with a sledgehammer if he encountered him. Neither Democrat Governor Josh Shapiro, nor his family, were injured.
Balmer’s mother told various outlets that Balmer has bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, and had stopped taking his pills. She also said that, in the days before the arson, she’d approached four police departments trying to get him “picked up,” to no avail. He has a record of domestic abuse against his wife and then 10-year old son.
In one social media conversation, Balmer claimed he was a “registered Socialist,” but he has no party affiliation associated with his active voter registration.
