On Tuesday, Federal agents including ICE, FBI, Homeland Security executed multiple search warrants across East Alabama Tuesday morning, targeting restaurants in the Opelika-Auburn area as part of a sweeping investigation into alleged federal crimes across the state. Press Conference set for 3:00.
At the center of the case is 52-year-old Cesar Campos Reyes, a Lee County man now wanted by federal authorities. Officials say Reyes is accused of defrauding COVID relief programs and misusing more than $225,000 in funds intended to help small businesses survive the pandemic. Reyes self-surrendered late Tuesday and is now in federal custody. He will likely make his initial appearance in federal court in Montgomery today.
