Feds raid Grantville car dealership

SAN DIEGO (CNS) – Investigators with the FBI, Internal Revenue Service,
Drug Enforcement Administration and other federal agencies raided a Grantville-area car dealership and two Del Cerro homes Wednesday and made several arrests as
part of an operation of undisclosed nature.

The teams of agents served search warrants this morning at Autohaus San
Diego on Mission Gorge Road and at residences on nearby Madra Avenue and Park
Ridge Boulevard.

Several people reportedly were arrested and computers seized at the
business.

Property records list the two houses under the names of people who are
in automobile-related professions.

Felicia McCain, a public information officer for the IRS, confirmed that
the agency was involved in a “law enforcement operation” but referred
further questions to the U.S. Attorney's Office.

Debra Hartman, spokeswoman for the latter agency, would not release any
details about the case, including the locations of the raids.

“I am sorry, but we have no comment at this time,” Hartman said early
this afternoon.

A spokesman for the FBI did not respond to a request for comment.
