Federal agents on Wednesday morning hauled more than 120 firearms, including "machine guns," out of the Ahwatukee Foothills home of a man suspected of shooting three times at a campaign office for the Democratic Party and posting bags of white powder labeled as poison near political signs.

Jeffrey Michael Kelly, 60, was arrested on Tuesday night near his Ahwatukee Foothills home by Tempe police who, according to court documents, used surveillance footage to find the suspect.

Pictures of the suspect vehicle were shared through Silent Witness, resulting in tips from community members who recalled Kelly had been accused of stealing campaign signs in the area in 2022, Tempe Police Chief Ken McCoy said Wednesday at a news conference.
