A family member says the man charged with setting fire to Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro’s mansion has struggled with mental illness and was treated at a psychiatric hospital twice in recent years.
The fire left significant damage and forced Shapiro, his family and guests to evacuate the building early Sunday during the Jewish holiday of Passover. No injuries were reported, but authorities were still working Tuesday to determine a possible motive, including whether it had anything to do with Shapiro’s politics or religious beliefs.
