Early this morning, FBI agents conducted search warrants at two different locations in Kailua-Kona.
It is unknown what the warrants were for or if any arrests were made.
Special Agent in Charge Steven Merrill stated: “The FBI can confirm that they are conducting court-authorized activities in the area. However, as our investigation is still ongoing, we decline to comment further.”
Hawai‘i Island Police Chief Ben Moszkowicz confirmed the federal agency contacted the department a couple of days ago to inform them they would be in the area “as a courtesy” which is common.
