Air Force, FBI reportedly raid homes of Area 51 website owner: 'I have no choice but to take legal action'

U.S. Air Force and FBI authorities have reportedly raided homes in Nevada belonging to a man who runs a website that posts information about the top-secret Area 51 military base, which has long been rumored to house evidence of extraterrestrial life.

The agents raided two homes belonging to Joerg Arnu, who runs the Area-51 themed website Dreamland Resort.com, in two different Nevada counties earlier this month, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported Wednesday.

"This is an open and ongoing law enforcement investigation between the Las Vegas FBI and Air Force OSI," Lt. Col. Bryon McGarry, spokesman for Nellis Air Force Base in Las Vegas, said in a statement to the outlet.
