“The matter is currently an active investigation. My office has filed a complaint with DPS. We are still assessing the damages and loss but as far as we can tell, A surveillance camera perched on my window sill was stolen,” she said.
Aside from a surveillance camera, Babauta said as of yesterday, it seems as though nothing else had been stolen.

Meanwhile, Babauta said ultimately the crime was a crime against the people and is concerned that her official office will continue to be a target.
“I am concerned because it’s a crime against the people and a public office being vandalized. Regardless of political affiliations we should all be concerned that a public office has been vandalized and as an elected public servant, I am concerned about my official office being targeted,” she said.
