Georgia –-(Ammoland.com)- On Tuesday, U.S. Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) agents raided the home of 26-year-old Kyle Myers in Royston, Ga., according to ATF spokesman Richard Coes.

Myers is the co-creator of the wildly popular “FPS Russia” videos seen on Youtube, in which various high-powered firearms are demonstrated.

The Athens Banner-Herald reported:

Federal agents, accompanied by Georgia Bureau of Investigation agents and deputies with the sheriff’s offices in Franklin and Hart counties, raided the Royston residence of Myers. Authorities also raided on Tuesday the 60-acre farm of Lamar Myers, Kyle’s father, in Lavonia.

No arrests were made, nor did Coes know if any explosives were seized. ‘The idea at one of the locations was to take firearms, but they did not do that,’ Coes said.

[…]

Myers was “known to use explosives and I don’t know if it was done with malicious intent,” Coes said, adding that Myers was blowing up cars, refrigerators and other items for entertainment purposes.

A total of 40 agents took part in the raids on the Myers’ homes, and the ATF did not report finding anything illegal on either property.
