ZIONSVILLE, Ind. (AP) β A raid at the home of Subway restaurant spokesman Jared Fogle is casting a spotlight on his relationship with the former head of a foundation he set up to combat childhood obesity.
Federal and state authorities raided Fogle’s home in the Indianapolis suburb of Zionsville on Tuesday. The move came two months after former Jared Foundation executive director Russell Taylor’s arrest on child pornography charges.
Authorities aren’t saying what they hoped to find on electronics removed from Fogle’s house. Fogle’s attorney says his client is cooperating with investigators and hasn’t been charged.
Subway announced it was suspending its relationship with Fogle in light of the investigation.
The 37-year-old Fogle began appearing in commercials for the chain after losing 245 pounds, in part by eating Subway sandwiches.
