Two FBI agents paid a visit to the home of a college student after she and two other journalism students shot video outside of the bureau’s field office in San Diego.
An FBI spokesman said two agents visited the home because they were concerned about people shooting video outside of the bureau without calling ahead like many other journalists do, the San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
First Amendment experts expressed concern with the visit, saying the students did nothing wrong and were intimidated by the agents.
The students said they received permission from a guard to shoot the video, and the guard even took down their drivers’ license information.
But before long, they were told to leave.
