Paris added that the investigation is “active and dynamic,” while stressing it is still in its early stages.

“We are conducting an arson investigation and an attempted homicide,” he said.

Dauphin County District Attorney Fran Chardo also said charges will include attempted murder and terrorism, along with others.

Shapiro and his family were at the mansion in the early hours of Sunday when state police evacuated them due to a fire. The fire was extinguished and no one was injured.

Police revealed in the press conference that the suspect entered the residence briefly, before setting fire to it and escaping by jumping over a fence.
