On the eve of the historic health care reform vote, federal officials are investigating a brick thrown through a window of the Niagara Falls office of U.S. Rep. Louise Slaughter, D-Fairport.
The incident occurred early Friday, when no one was in the office, said Slaughter spokeswoman Victoria Dillon. There was no note or message on the brick, she said.
“Because she is a federal official, they’re taking this very seriously,” Dillon said. “The U.S. Capitol police and the FBI are working on it.”
Slaughter, who is in Washington, heard about the incident, Dillon said.
“She wanted to make sure everyone’s OK,” she said.
