SUNNY ISLES BEACH, FLA. (WSVN) - Police have arrested two people after a SWAT team raided a home in Sunny Isles Beach.
Aventura Police raided the home at around 6 a.m., Thursday in the area of 189th Terrace and Atlantic Boulevard. Neighbors said police had to break down the door to the home.
“I was waking up today with helicopter sounds,” said a woman near the scene. “This house is spooky.”
Officials said the home was full of people on vacation who were renting out rooms.
7News tried to interview one of the renters, but received little details.
“I didn’t see anything, sorry,” a man said as he walked near the scene.
Some neighbors were surprised to find heavy police presence in a quiet area with upscale homes, but one in particular had prior concerns of the home.
“It’s very strange to see this around here,” one resident said.
“This house is trouble,” a neighbor said. “I don’t know what’s really going on there, but it’s a neighbor I was concerned [about]. I’m glad if something was wrong, it was catched.”
According to police, two men were arrested as a part of an active fraud investigation.
Investigators spent much of the day outside of the home questioning people.
Police have not provided any more information.
