FBI investigating shot fired at home where GOP candidate's children often stay: report

The FBI is investigating a shooting that took place last month at a North Carolina home belonging to the parents of Pat Harrigan, a former Green Beret and Republican candidate running for Congress, according to reports.

WBT News reported Thursday that the FBI is involved in the investigation. The agency could not be reached for confirmation. 

Harrigan’s campaign manager told The Carolina Journal that a suspect shot into the home of his parents in Hickory. He said Harrigan’s children were in the home at the time and the shot entered just a few feet from where they were sleeping. 

Harrigan's campaign told Fox News Digital his children often spend the night at the house, but he was not there at the time of the shooting. 

As of Thursday, there have been no arrests in the incident. Harrigan’s campaign has not confirmed that the FBI is involved in the investigation.
