Investigators raided the Indianapolis home of Subway spokesperson Jared Fogle Tuesday morning as part of an ongoing child porn investigation.

The investigation has been going on for several months, and is related to the arrest of Jared Foundation executive director Russell Taylor for child porn charges, NBC affiliate  WTHR reports. The Jared Foundation was started by Jared to prevent childhood obesity.

The raid was conducted by federal and state investigators and led by the Indiana Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force after a federal judge signed a search warrant.

Agents have been removing electronics throughout the morning and are analyzing them in a forensics van parked in his home’s driveway.

Fogle has been detained, though he has yet to be arrested. His family left the home shortly after the raid.

Subway has released a statement regarding the raid, “We are shocked about the news and believe it is related to a prior investigation of a former Jared Foundation employee. We are very concerned and will be monitoring the situation closely.”

A link on the Subway site named “Jared’s Journey”, which details how Fogle successfully lost weight has been removed, it now redirects to the homepage.
