Federal agents stormed a quiet upstate New York property Tuesday in a jarring show of force tied to the widening criminal case against actor Timothy Busfield, even as the actor was already in police custody thousands of miles away.
According to the New York Post, heavily armed members of the U.S. Marshals Service descended on Busfield’s residence in Highland Lake, New York, a rural area in the Catskill Mountains near the Pennsylvania border.
The raid unfolded less than an hour after Busfield had voluntarily turned himself in to authorities in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
The outlet reported that at least 10 officers from the New York Regional Fugitive Task Force arrived at the home wearing helmets and riot gear and carrying assault rifles. Agents allegedly used a battering ram to break through the front door before entering the house.
Once inside, officers searched the residence for roughly 10 minutes but did not find anyone there.
