Arrest made in DNC office shootings, tampered with Ahwatukee political signs

TEMPE, Ariz. - An arrest was made in a string of attacks on the Democratic National Committee Tempe office, as well as an incident in Ahwatukee that involved political signs and razor blades.

The news of the arrest came on Oct. 22, just hours after the Ahwatukee incident.

Police say the unidentified suspect was "arrested for hanging suspicious bags of white powder from several political signs lined with razor blades …" on Oct. 22. Investigators were seen near Chandler Boulevard and 44th Street taking down a sign that read "DEMS LIE" from a tree.

Two of the separate shooting incidents at the DNC office happened in September. The last happened in October.

No one was hurt in these incidents.

Investigators didn't say how exactly they were able to link the suspect to the incidents.

Police say they won't be releasing information on the suspect until a news conference on Wednesday, Oct. 23.
