Tim Pool Says Vehicle Fired at His Harpers Ferry Home Overnight; No Injuries Reported

Tim Pool Reports Late-Night Shooting at Harpers Ferry Home

Right-wing commentator Tim Pool said a vehicle approached his Harpers Ferry, W.Va., property and opened fire overnight on Dec. 5. In a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Dec. 6, Pool said "no one was hurt" and that his security team is reviewing the incident and will forward findings to law enforcement.

What Pool Said

"Last night, a vehicle approached our property and opened fire."

Pool added that his "immediate thought is someone was trying to scare us," noting that a security gate and armed guards may have deterred a more serious outcome. He also wrote, "This is the price we pay for speaking out against evil." Pool is married to producer Alison Neubauer.

Official Response

As of Dec. 6, representatives for Pool and the Harpers Ferry Police Department had not provided additional comment in response to requests for more information. Pool said his security team will relay its report to the appropriate law enforcement authorities.

Public Reaction

The post drew messages of support from several conservative media figures and politicians. Megyn Kelly wrote, "This is awful, Tim. I’m so sorry this happened. Things are getting out of control and it’s happening more frequently. Praying for your safety." Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene added, "This is terrifying. I’m glad everyone is ok. Everyone must stand together against this type of political violence and intimidation. No matter who it happens to. Whether you like them or not."

Background

Pool first gained public attention in 2011 for livestreaming coverage of the Occupy Wall Street protests. He has since built a following by commenting on vaccines, immigration, the media and other political topics, and has been a vocal supporter of former President Donald Trump.

Context

Pool’s account of the Dec. 5 incident adds to wider concerns about threats and violence directed at public figures in 2025. Media reports have documented multiple politically charged attacks this year; many incidents remain under investigation and details are still being confirmed by authorities.
