Police said that the attack "stems from a personal matter not related to the victim's position on Danville City Council or any other political affiliation."

Now to infer.

However, attacks on local and national politicians have become more common in the United States in recent years.

In 2020, 14 men were arrested in connection with a domestic terror plot to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and overthrow the state's government. Last year, President Donald Trump survived two assassination attempts while campaigning for president. In April, Gov. Josh Shapiro's home was firebombed by a man who disagreed with the governor's views on the war in Gaza.
