Law enforcement officers are currently investigating a break-in that occurred late Sunday at the campaign office of former President Donald Trump in Ashburn, Virginia, located in the Washington, DC, metropolitan area.
The Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office received a call around 9 p.m. on Sunday reporting a burglary at the office, which is currently being leased by the Trump campaign and serves as the headquarters of the Virginia 10th District Republican Committee.
