Federal agents on Monday morning raided the Washington, D.C., home of Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar, according to a news report.

The Homeland Security Investigations raid is being reported by Fox News Digital, based on what the news outlet said was at least one source familiar with the matter. 

Multiple federal agents with HSI jackets were seen outside Omar's home in the early hours of Monday, in a video included with the story.

Two sources close to the investigation say the search is related to a criminal fraud investigation into the Somali-born congresswoman's immigration paperwork, which was filled out by her late father when she was a child, Fox also reports.
