The home of a former Sacramento County Sheriff's Office was raided by two federal agencies, reports CBS13.
The incident took place on Knowlton Court in Roseville on Wednesday, March 3.
Neighbors were left wondering what brought on the raid on Wednesday morning. Federal agencies have not revealed the reason behind raiding the home or who the former employee is. However, neighbors say a former deputy lives at the house and a patrol car is usually parked outside.
One neighbor who witnessed the events talked with CBS13.
"All of a sudden we saw this van pull up and blocked us in, the door slid open and all these SWAT team members came flooding out," said Cindy Turk, who has lived on the street for 21 years.
Turk's Ring video captured footage of officers surrounding her neighbor's home as well as a woman and two men detained on the front lawn. As flashbangs went off, gents then shattered the back door to get inside the house.
Agents were seen removing boxes marked as evidence from the house and loading them into large SUVs.
"I understand they took a lot of cell phones and I saw them taking a lot of stuff in and out of the vans," another neighbor Rene Tichauer told CBS13.
Any other information about the raid is still unknown.
The Sacramento County Sheriff's Office said the person is an "at-will employee" who wasn't working for them at the time of the raid.
