FBI, IRS Agents Raid Chinatown Restaurants

FBI agents executed search warrants at "a number of locations" in Chicago as part of an ongoing investigation, an agency spokeswoman said.

Lao Beijing Restaurant, on the 2100 block of South Archer Avenue, in the Chinatown neighborhood, was one of several locations visted. The owner, Tony Hu, owns the Tony Gourmet Group, and it appeared several of his locations were being investigated.

"No arrests [are] involved with today's activity," Special Agent Joan Hyde told NBC Chicago.

The IRS was also involved in Friday's action. It remained unclear as of 1 p.m. Friday what the investigation was regarding.
