Sources: Armed Thieves at Center of FBI Raids

Dale City, Va. –– The FBI says residents of Dale City’s Birchdale neighborhood they are not in danger.

Despite the massive show of force used last night during raids on two homes on Bremerton Drive, federal authorities say the police action was prompted by an ongoing investigation.

Sources tell PotomacLocal.com that investigation stretches far beyond Dale City.

“The law enforcement agencies involved in this investigation are in the business of keeping the public safe, including when arrests and searches are involved.  The activities of law enforcement are extensively planned and every precaution is taken.  We are confident that there is no danger to the public at this time,” said FBI spokesman Andrew Ames.

But it’s still not clear why federal authorities raided those two houses.

Sources say the sing was part of larger search for a band of armed thieves operating as part of a national crime organization.

The FBI has been tight lipped about the incident and said they cannot comment on an ongoing investigation.

Additionally, there has been no information released about on any arrests made.
