Two of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ properties have been searched by federal agents as part of an ongoing sex trafficking investigation, according to reports.
Combs’ homes in Los Angeles and Miami were searched by officers on Monday.
The searches were connected to a sex trafficking investigation by federal authorities in New York, the AP news agency reported.
In a statement, Homeland Security Investigations said it “executed law enforcement actions as part of an ongoing investigation, with assistance from HSI Los Angeles, HSI Miami, and our local law enforcement partners.”

Combs has been the subject of several sexual assault lawsuits in recent months, including a lawsuit from the R&B singer Cassie that was settled last year.
Another of Combs’ accusers is a woman who claims he raped her two decades ago when she was 17-years-old.
Combs has denied all the allegations.

In a statement in December, he described the claims as “sickening” and said his accusers were “looking for a quick payday”.
“Let me be absolutely clear: I did not do any of the awful things being alleged. I will fight for my name, my family and for the truth,” he said.
