Pennsylvania governor's mansion attack suspect Cody Balmer admitted 'harboring hatred' toward Shapiro: police

The man who allegedly set fire to the mansion of Gov. Josh Shapiro, D-Penn., and his family turned himself in, according to the criminal complaint obtained by Fox News.

Cody Balmer, 38, of Harrisburg, was first identified to police by an ex-lover after he allegedly confessed to her and "wanted her to call police to turn him in," the complaint said. It was only a short time later that Balmer turned himself in outside Pennsylvania State Police headquarters, police said. 

While being interviewed by troopers, "Balmer admitted to harboring hatred towards Governor Shapiro." Balmer allegedly told investigators "he removed gasoline from a lawn mower and poured it into Heineken bottles he found at his residence."
