Shots fired into Volusia County Republican Party headquarters, police say

At least four gunshots were fired into the Volusia County Republican headquarters in South Daytona.

SOUTH DAYTONA, Fla. — The windows of a Volusia County Republican Party office were shot at over the weekend.

Capt. Mark Cheatham of the South Daytona Police Department says four shots were fired at the office of the Republican Executive Committee of Volusia County.

Tony Ledbetter, the county GOP chair, said the shooting happened sometime from when staffers left the office Sunday afternoon and returned Monday morning.

Nobody was inside when the shooting took place.

Cheatham says the shooting is being investigated as vandalism until detectives establish a motive.

Ledbetter says it appeared to be by a drive-by-shooter. A window was shot out and another had a bullet hole in it.

The office is located in a strip mall in South Daytona
