What the heck is up with IHOP?
Earlier this month, a deranged gunman walked into a Carson City, Nev. IHOP and opened fire.
Now the Associated Press reports this week that FBI agents executed search warrants at six IHOP restaurants in northwest Ohio and one in Indiana.
AP reported that the IHOPs were Evansville, Ind., and the others are in the Toledo area.
The Toledo Blade reported that agents carried away boxes of documents.
Authorties said the raids involved the FBI, the Internal Revenue Service and Homeland Security investigations through U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
AP reported that a spokesman for IHOP’s parent company, DineEquity, told the Evansville Courier and Press the company is cooperating and was told the investigation does not involve terrorism.
