Shapiro and his family had just finished a seder meal and they and their guests had left the dininig room when a mentally unstable guy got through the PA state police security and was able to toss two molotov cocktails into the dining room setting it ablaze. He was caught running away, but of course a major fail by the PSP.

The arsonist reportedly had a grudge because he was losing his house and blamed Shapiro.

Later reports came out that it was probably the doors to the dining room being closed that kept the fire contained and allowed Shapiro, his family and guests to escape unharmed.
