The Albemarle County Republican headquarters in Virginia had at least two bricks thrown through its windows overnight.

According to a press release from the Albermarle County Police Department:

On March 26, 2010 at approximately 8:47 A.M. County Police responded to 455 Albemarle Square for a report of vandalism to the GOP headquarters. Sometime between 6:15 P.M. on March 25th and 8:45 A.M. this morning unknown suspect(s) threw at least two bricks through the windows of the headquarters. Two of the windows were completely shattered and a third was partially damaged. A preliminary estimate of the damage to the windows is approximately $1,000.00. There was no apparent entry to the building.

There has been a nationwide outbreak of political violence, vandalism and threats that seems to have followed directly from this week’s passage of health care form.
