ROANOKE, Va. - Roanoke police arrested the man they say shattered the front door to Sen. Mark Warner's downtown Roanoke office Monday.

James Trainor, 36, faces one count of property damage. The charge against Trainor cannot be more severe just because the property belongs to a politician, according to police. This charge against him is the same as it would be if the damage was to a restaurant or other business.

In 2013, Trainor pleaded guilty to attempted second-degree murder and eluding police in Bland County.
A judge ordered him to serve five years in jail.

Someone threw a brick through the glass front door of Warner's Kirk Avenue office before the office opened for the day, according to Warner's press secretary, Nelly Decker. No one was in the office at the time.
