The FBI swarmed a home in Miami Gardens on Friday morning, taking multiple people into custody, video showed.

The raid happened at a home off of Northwest 159th Street and Northwest 28th Place.

Aerial footage of the scene shows several people handcuffed near an FBI vehicle, but it was not immediately clear what the operation was about.

"I got out the shower and I heard a loud 'bam.' And then when I came out, I saw all the lights and the police," a neighbor who did not want to be identified said.

She said she saw officers encounter about seven people in all.

"Three ladies came out," she said. "They had them sitting down on the side, and then three other men came out. They handcuffed those three men too, but then they let them go... And then police went around the corner, brought the guys back, searched them and then let them go again."

The FBI confirmed that they were conducting court-ordered law enforcement activity in the area.

"There is no threat to public safety," the FBI said in a statement. "Because this is part of an ongoing investigation, no further information will be released at this time."
