Jared Fogle's home near Indianapolis was raided Tuesday morning, July 7, during a child porn investigation.
Fogle rose to fame when he lost 235 pounds by walking and eating low calorie Subway meals. The company soon hired him as a spokesman.
The Indianapolis Star reports that FBI spokeswoman Wendy Osborne confirmed that the agency was conducting a criminal investigation in the area, but she would not comment on the nature of the probe.
TMZ reports that it was part of a child pornography investigation.
The investigation comes just 2 months after, Russel Taylor, the former director of Fogle's foundation was arrested in Indianapolis on federal child pornography charges.
He faces seven counts of production of child pornography and one count of possession of child pornography.
Taylor later attempted suicide while being held in Marion County Jail and was placed on life support, May 6th.
It's not clear if today's raid at Fogle's home is connected to Taylor. Osbourne referred questions to officials from the U.S. Attorney's Office. They declined comment.
