The homes of two top officials close to NYC Mayor Eric Adams were raided by the FBI Wednesday, sources have confirmed to FOX 5 NY's Morgan McKay.

First reported by THE CITY, FBI agents raided the homes of two top NYC officials – First Deputy Mayor Sheena Wright and Deputy Mayor for Public Safety Philip Banks III

Benjamin Brafman, an attorney for Phillip Banks, confirmed to FOX 5 NY's Linda Schmidt that a search was conducted at his client's home on Wednesday.

"I have been clear that my message throughout my public life is to follow the law and that's what we're doing," Adams said in an interview with FOX 5 NY on Thursday. "And we're going to comply with whatever inquiry and whatever we have to submit." Adams also said that the raids do not mean indictments will necessarily follow.

The reasons for the raids are unclear at this time. THE CITY reports that a source said the cell phones and laptop of Wright and Banks were taken.

According to one source familiar, the investigation might not be connected to the federal corruption investigation surrounding Adams and his campaign fundraising.
