Federal search warrant being executed at local pain agency

BOARDMAN

Several local and federal agencies are executing a search warrant at Allied Pain Treatment Center on Windham Court in Boardman.

Jim Ciotti, special agent supervisor with U.S. Attorney General’s office, said a multi-jurisdiction federal search warrant is being executed in three areas.

“One in the northern district of Ohio, southern district of Ohio and one in the western district of Pennsylvania,” Ciotti said.

Members of the Ohio Attorney General’s office, Ohio Medical Board special investigations unit , Ohio Board of Pharmacy investigations unit, Ohio Department of Health and Human Services, U.S. Department of Justice, Ohio Bureau of Workers Compensation, DEA, BCI and FBI are involved in the investigation.

Several boxes are being loaded into a truck outside the local pain agency, but Ciotti didn’t say what agents are after.

“The probable cause for the search warrant is sealed under federal seal,” Ciotti said.

He added no arrests have been made as of yet.
