“It’s all going down right now, near the Playboy Mansion and close to the estate where Michael Jackson died,” TMZ noted.
“Aerial video from Sky5 showed federal agents and police examining hundreds of guns laid out in a courtyard area of the home. The cache of weapons included various long guns and handguns, video from Sky5 showed,” KTLA-TV reported. “Public property records for the address being searched indicate it’s a five-bedroom, 8,200-square-foot home that last sold in 2001.
