Federal authorities have launched a full-scale manhunt after a shocking attack on the office of Acting U.S. Attorney Alina Habba in New Jersey.
According to the DOJ, the incident happened Wednesday night when an unknown individual breached Habba’s office, caused property damage, and fled before law enforcement could catch up.
Attorney General Pam Bondi confirmed the attack Thursday — and her message was crystal clear:
👉 “Thankfully, Alina is OK. But any violence against federal officers will NOT be tolerated. Period.”
Bondi warned that this attack isn’t an isolated case, calling it part of a disturbing national trend of radicals targeting law enforcement. And she vowed the DOJ is coming after the suspect with everything it’s got:
➡️ “We WILL find this person, and they WILL be brought to justice.”
Habba, meanwhile, didn’t flinch.
🔥 “I will not be intimidated by radical lunatics for doing my job,” she declared — signaling she isn’t backing down from her duties for a single second.
As Acting U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey, Habba oversees all federal criminal prosecutions and civil litigation involving the U.S. government, managing a massive team across Newark, Camden, and Trenton. Her office handles everything from terrorism and cybercrime to corruption and fraud.
That’s why officials say this attack isn’t just vandalism — it’s an assault on the rule of law itself.
The investigation is now a multi-agency effort, likely involving the FBI and U.S. Marshals, who protect federal judicial officers. With political tensions high and threats against public officials rising, DOJ leaders are treating this case as a major warning sign.
For now, the suspect remains at large — and federal authorities are racing against the clock to track them down.
