HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — A man accused of trying to burn down Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro’s official residence is seeking to delay his next court appearance because he’s receiving mental health treatment. Cody Balmer’s lawyer said Friday that his hearing scheduled for Wednesday will be postponed to ensure he’s mentally fit when he appears in court. The hearing was scheduled to determine whether prosecutors have enough evidence to take the case to trial. Balmer is currently being held at a state prison with a mental health unit. Balmer’s mother and brother say he suffers from mental illness, something that Balmer denied in one brief court appearance. Authorities say Balmer expressed hatred for Shapiro.
