ALBANY, Ore. (AP) — FBI agents have searched a house in Albany but wouldn’t say why.

The Albany Democrat-Herald (http://bit.ly/zvc3pQ ) reported agents conducted the search Thursday at a property owned by a woman who has a number of rental properties in the area.

Bureau spokeswoman Beth Anne Steele in Portland said that the search warrant related to a “cyber case,” alluding to Internet use, but she provided no details.

She says nobody was arrested, and the affidavit used in the search will remain sealed until a list of items seized at the home goes to a federal judge for review.
