Conservative pundit Tim Pool said on Saturday that a gunman in a vehicle opened fire on his guarded property Friday night. No one was injured in the incident.
“My immediate thoughts is someone was trying to scare us,” he wrote on X. “But we have a security gate and armed guards and its possible this deterred something more serious.”
In a previous post, Pool said his security team is reviewing the reported drive-by shooting and will be relaying the report to various law enforcement agencies.
The Washington Examiner did not immediately receive responses from the FBI and West Virginia law enforcement on Saturday morning. Pool’s home and office are located in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia.
“This is the price we pay for speaking out against evil,” the right-wing podcaster said.
An outpouring of support from conservatives was apparent on social media.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), who recently announced her resignation from Congress after facing threats sparked by her feud with President Donald Trump, reacted to the incident.
“This is terrifying. I’m glad everyone is ok,” she posted on X. “Everyone must stand together against this type of political violence and intimidation. No matter who it happens to. Whether you like them or not.”
