Rep.Elijah Cummings’ (D-MD) Baltimore house was reportedly broken into in early Saturday morning before President Trump tweeted about the Maryland congressman and his district.
A CBS affiliate in Baltimore reported that Cummings’s home was broken into. A Baltimore Police Department spokesperson confirmed to The Hill that a burglary had taken place in the area at about 3:40 a.m. Saturday and the department was investigating, as per The Hill.
“At this time, it is unknown if any property was taken from the location,” a police spokesman told CNBC.
President Trump ripped Cummings and his district on Saturday morning, accusing the Democratic congressman of being a “brutal bully” and that his district was “rat and rodent infested” and a “very dangerous & filthy place” where “no human being would want to live.”
On Thursday, Cummings visited Baltimore constituents in Waverly and tweeted a picture of his visit.
He wrote, “I visited a packed house at Stadium Place today to provide the seniors there with a legislative update & to talk about my work in Congress. We talked about what matters to them, & they encouraged me to keep doing my job & continue fighting for them in Washington.” [Video Below]
