The FBI, IRS, and Housing and Urban Development raided the city hall building of Buffalo, New York Wednesday, according to reports.
In a statement to 7 Eyewitness News, a Buffalo City Hall spokesperson said the FBI was conducting “court-authorized activity.”
“Our understanding is that court-authorized activity has taken place at a BURA office. At this time we have no further information,” said Michael DeGeorge.
Details of the court order are currently unknown and no arrests have been made.
