Jan. 14 (UPI) -- The FBI raided the home of Washington Post reporter Hannah Natanson on Wednesday morning as part of an investigation into a government contractor.
The FBI executed a search warrant at Natanson's home, seizing electronic devices including a phone and laptop computers and a Garmin watch, The Washington Post, CNN and The Hill report. The reports are based, at least in part, on unnamed sources.
The investigation centers around a government contractor who has allegedly retained classified government materials. Natanson was informed that she is not the focus of the probe, unnamed sources told the Post and CNN.
According to the warrant, the FBI is investigating Aurelio Perez-Lugones, a system administrator from Maryland with a contract with the Pentagon who has top-secret security clearance. The FBI alleges Perez-Lugones has been taking classified reports home and keeping them.
