Subway restaurant chain says it's suspending relationship with spokesman Jared

ZIONSVILLE, Ind. --The Subway restaurant chain says it's suspending its relationship with spokesman Jared Fogle amid an investigation into child pornography.

FBI sources told WXIN state and federal and state investigators served warrants at Fogle’s home in connection with the investigation.

The raid started around 6:30 a.m. Tuesday. An evidence truck could be seen parked in the driveway. Investigators from the FBI and Indiana State Police are also at the scene.

Earlier this year, Russell Taylor, the former director of the Jared Foundation started by Fogle, was arrested in a child pornography case. He was accused of possessing and producing child pornography.



Investigators said a search of Taylor’s home turned up more than 500 videos with images of child pornography.

In May, Taylor unsuccessfully tried to kill himself while in jail.

Fogle said the foundation severed all ties with Taylor following the arrest. Investigators wouldn’t say if Tuesday’s raid was connected to that case.

Fogle gained national fame after attributing massive weight loss to eating Subway sandwiches. He was a freshman at Indiana University at the time. He later became a visible presence in Subway ad campaigns, pitching the restaurant’s sandwiches and touting their health benefits.
