The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has raided the home of Subway ambassador Jared Fogle as part of a child pornography investigation.

The Zionsville, Indiana home of the spokesman, who famously lost a reported 235lb on a diet solely composed of Subway sandwiches and regular exercise, was raided by authorities early on Tuesday morning.

The raid comes after Russell Taylor, the ex-director of Fogle’s Jared Foundation charity was arrested for possessing over 500 child porn videos, although the FBI refused to say whether the cases are linked.

Fogle was prominent in much of Subway’s advertising at the break of the millennium after his dramatic weight loss on a diet of one six-inch turkey sub and one twelve-inch veggie sub a day for a year.
