In the News…

Agents from the U.S. Air Force Office of Special Investigations and the Federal Bureau of Investigation have raided several civilian homes in Las Vegas as they investigate a person who operates a website about Area 51, a top-secret military base in Nevada. 

According to Lieutenant Colonel Bryon McGarry, spokesman for Nellis Air Force Base, they have seized potential evidence in their security probe, but he could provide no additional information. Nor could a press official with the FBI in Las Vegas.  

The individual who is the primary subject of the investigation confirmed that agents had confiscated “laptops, phones, backup drives, camera gear, and my drone.” He said the agents had caused damage to his homes that would cost thousands of dollars to repair. He claimed that the information on his website “was legally obtained and legal to publish,” but said he has removed some of it “in an effort to defuse the situation.”
