Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro reopened the governor's official residence to the public Tuesday for an Easter egg hunt barely a week after an alleged arsonist's fire tore through one of its wings and said he will begin sleeping there again soon.

Five former Pennsylvania governors and one ex-governor's family issued a joint statement Friday condemning the violent arson.

The event with preschoolers was away from the south wing, where crews are at work stripping the fire-damaged interior.
