Police are investigating a report of a burglary at a Virginia campaign office for former President Donald Trump over the weekend. Investigators have released an image of the suspect and are asking the public to come forward with any information.
The break-in happened on Sunday at an office building in Ashburn that is currently being rented by the Trump Campaign. It is also the headquarters of the Virginia 10th District Republican Committee, according to a news release from Northern Virginia's Loudoun County Sheriff's Office.
The sheriff's office was contacted shortly after 9 p.m. on Sunday. Office staff provided the officers with surveillance footage that shows someone wearing dark clothing, a dark park and a backpack as they rummaged through the building.
A video shows the suspect breaking in before proceeding to go through the office, sheriff's office spokesperson Thomas A. Julia said in an email statement to the Associated Press on Tuesday."
It is rare to have the office of any political campaign or party broken into," Sheriff Mike Chapman said in a statement. "We are determined to identify the suspect, investigate why it happened, and determine what may have been taken, as well as what may have been left behind."
When asked for further comment, investigators announced that an update will be revealed as early as tomorrow.
The news comes just days after the Trump Campaign reported that their campaign infrastructure had been hacked by Iran.
The FBI is currently conducting an investigation into the suspected cyber attack.
