Law enforcement authorities are investigating an incident at the Ohio residence of US Vice President JD Vance after one person was taken into custody, CNN reported on Monday, citing a US law enforcement source.

Authorities do not believe the individual was able to enter the residence, and the Vance family was not at home at the time of the incident, the report said. Local media outlets reported what appeared to be damage to at least one window at the property.
