FBI conducts raid in FLDS-connected town of Colorado City, AZ, reportedly connected to man's arrest for transporting girls in a trailer on the freeway
COLORADO CITY, Ariz. — The FBI executed a search warrant on a home in Colorado City, a town that's just across from Hildale on the Utah-Arizona border, following the arrest of a man accused by authorities of transporting young girls in a locked cargo trailer toward Phoenix.
"I can confirm that the FBI has personnel in Colorado City today conducting court-authorized law enforcement activity," a spokesman at the FBI's office in Phoenix told FOX 13 News. The Arizona Highway Patrol pulled Bateman over on I-40 and troopers claimed they found three girls who were between 11 and 15 years old in a locked, enclosed trailer. At least two more girls were in the pickup truck's cab with Bateman, officers wrote. Bateman admitted to putting the three girls in the trailer and was heading to the Phoenix area, officers wrote, but he claimed they were safe and that this was legal within Arizona laws.
"Under the circumstances, I'm okay with my daughters being there, if they stay together," she reportedly told police.
