NANTICOKE, PA – A quiet Wednesday night turned chaotic when an unknown man hurled firebombs at a Pennsylvania state representative’s office, sparking an urgent police hunt for the suspect. Authorities are now calling on the public to help track down the individual behind this dangerous act.
Firebombs Target Legislative Office
The Nanticoke City Police Department released surveillance photos on Friday, showing a suspect who allegedly tossed “several Molotov cocktail like devices” at the office of Republican State Rep. Alec Ryncavage. The incident unfolded around 11:20 p.m. on Wednesday at 50 North Walnut Street in Nanticoke, a small city roughly 120 miles northwest of Philadelphia.
Rep. Ryncavage described the alarming event, saying, “Late Wednesday night, an unidentified male attempted to ignite and throw two firebomb-like devices at my legislative district office. Our complex shares walls with a family-owned pharmacy, a family-owned physical therapy office, and we have neighbors right across the street. Sadly, someone wanted to light it all on fire.”
Community Spared from Harm
Despite the potential for disaster, the attack caused no injuries. Ryncavage added, “This is concerning for my constituents, my staff and the community. Thankfully, no one was injured.”
The quick response from law enforcement has shifted focus to identifying the perpetrator before further incidents occur.
Police Urge Public Assistance
Investigators are working diligently to find the suspect and are asking for tips from residents. Anyone with information is urged to contact 911 or reach out directly to Detective Captain Chadwick Southern at 570-736-2094. The Nanticoke City Police Department hopes community cooperation will lead to a swift resolution in this troubling case.
With the suspect still at large, authorities remain on high alert as they piece together details of this bold arson attempt in the heart of Pennsylvania.
