Albany, N.Y. -- Police are investigating after shots were fired through a window at the Albany County Democratic Committee headquarters overnight.



The damage was found Wednesday morning, according to the Albany Times Union. Six rounds were fired through a window at the office, which is located in the city of Albany.



The bullets hit the window of the party chairman's office, the Times Union said.



"It's pretty scary because I could have actually been there," Chairman Jack Flynn said, according to the paper. "I'm glad nobody was hurt."

Flynn said he sometimes works at the office late.



No one was in the building at the time the shots were fired, police said, according to WRGB in Albany.



Flynn said he believes the shots were meant as a statement. He noted the bullets fired at the window hit the name of the organization "right in the middle," according to the Times Union.



Police were still at the scene investigating around noon on Wednesday, the paper said.
