Updated at 5:40 p.m. ET. Giffords' spokesman, C.J. Karamargin, said a security guard reported the broken window early Monday morning, hours after he and other staffers had left the office after watching the health care vote on television.

"That was the frightening thing, that people were here just before this happened," Karamargin said in a telephone interview from the Tucson office. "We feel lucky no one was injured."

He said the office had received many phone calls with "nasty and rude and hateful comments" from opponents of the health care bill but no death threats.

Giffords' office supplied the photo above of the shattered glass door.

From March 24, 2010.
