Feds Raid Home Of Subway Spokesman Jared Fogle In Child Pornography Investigation
ZIONSVILLE, Ind. (CBS/AP) — FBI agents and Indiana State Police are at the home of Subway restaurant spokesman Jared Fogle and have removed electronics from the property.
FBI sources told CBS4 federal and state investigators were serving warrants at Fogle's Zionsville home in connection with a child pornography investigation.
The Indianapolis Star report that Fogle was detained while electronics were removed from the home and analyzed inside a mobile forensics van.
Following word of the investigation, Subway announced it and Fogle had "agreed to suspend their relationship."
Fogle became the restaurant's pitchman after losing more than 200 pounds while eating Subway sandwiches and exercising.
Earlier this year, Russell Taylor, the former director of the Jared Foundation started by Fogle, was arrested in a child pornography case.
