A spokesperson for the FBI confirmed Wednesday morning that the agency conducted a court-authorized search at that location, but no other information was provided.
"There have been quite a few things going on in that area with violent crime actually, to say the least," North Braddock Mayor Tom Whyel said.
Late last year, there were back-to-back shootings in that area.
Police arrested and charged 20-year-old Courde Day for both on Dec. 29.
