MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. – At least one person was taken into custody Monday morning after Miami Gardens police and multiple federal agencies served a warrant at a home.
Miami Gardens police confirmed that a federal operation was unfolding at a home in the area of Northwest Seventh Avenue and 179th Terrace.
Miami Gardens police officers were spotted at the scene along with FBI agents and agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
Sky 10 was above the scene as a man was placed in handcuffs. A couple of children were spotted nearby.
A woman who asked not to show her face told Local 10 News she is the mother of the man taken into custody and was sleeping when it all went down.
“They came in with big guns, dogs, and were just hollering and screaming,” she said.
The woman said agents tried busting a window and the front door, but couldn’t break though because it’s hurricane glass, so they used a saw to gain entry.
“They claimed they knocked but we didn’t hear no knock,” she said.
Police said that the warrant was served peacefully and there were no threats or injuries.
Further details about the warrant were not immediately disclosed.
