A video appeared on a Mount Sinai community Facebook page this morning recording the activity. A person on a speaker can be heard saying, “This is the FBI. For your safety. Exit immediately with your hands up.”

 

“Occupants of four Sutton Court this is the FBI. Exit immediately with your hands up.” The person repeats this again in the video, which then cuts off.

 

The poster said that two men were arrested.

 

“If anyone was awaken this morning around 6:30 am to loud bangs and announcements from the FBI that lasted for about a 1/2 hour, an apartment was raided in Sutton Landing Mt Sinai,” the post says. “2 men were apprehended.”
