Burglary reported at campaign office of Arizona governor candidate Hobbs

Police are investigating a burglary at the Phoenix campaign office of Katie Hobbs, the Democratic nominee for Arizona governor.

“Several items” were taken from the property “sometime during the night,” authorities said, according to local media reports.

No suspects have been identified as of press time, but the Hobbs campaign told 3TV/CB5 that one person was caught on a security camera walking up to the office door on Monday night. Police said they are reviewing security camera footage.

Hobbs, who is Arizona’s secretary of state, is facing off against MAGA star Kari Lake, a longtime journalist who is endorsed by former President Donald Trump.

Hobbs released a statement from campaign manager Nicole DeMont about the break-in, noting that Hobbs and her staff “have faced hundreds of death threats and threats of violence over the course of this campaign” and accusing Lake and her allies of “spreading dangerous misinformation and inciting threats against anyone they see fit.”
