Federal Bureau of Investigation agents executed a search warrant Wednesday at the Virginia home of Washington Post reporter Hannah Natanson, the newspaper confirmed, seizing her phone, two laptops and other devices as part of an investigation into a government contractor accused of improperly retaining classified materials.
The rare enforcement action — authorities say it stems from a probe into a Maryland-based system administrator charged with removing sensitive intelligence documents from secure facilities — targeted Natanson's residence and equipment, though the reporter is not believed to be a target of the underlying case.
