Pennsylvania's governor, Josh Shapiro, has for the first time revealed details of the April arson attack against his residence, describing shattered windows, melted furniture and artwork disintegrated into walls" after an intruder firebombed his family home following their Passover celebration.

Windows were smashed in, and there was glass everywhere. Some tables were turned over, and others had just melted away," Shapiro wrote in an essay in the New York Times on Wednesday. The devastation was shocking, and to me, it did not appear to be an accident. The damage was too extreme. It looked like a bomb had gone off in the middle of our home."
