“I’m not in a position to make a comment right now because the operation is underway,” says Lt. George Cavinta of the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office. “The FBI has the command post, and it’s all the FBI’s warrants.”
Cavinta said that someone — either his office or the FBI — will likely make a statement by noon.

UPDATE, 8:26 a.m.: See here.
