Miami, FL - Federal agents raided the Miami Beach and Los Angeles homes of music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs on Monday, while simultaneously arresting an associate on drug charges at a nearby airport.
The raids are reportedly connected to a sex trafficking investigation.
Brendon Paul, 25, of Ohio, was arrested at Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport and faces felony charges for possession of cocaine and marijuana candy.
According to a police report, Paul had the drugs in his personal belongings during a search conducted by Miami-Dade police working with Homeland Security and Customs and Border Protection.
A recent lawsuit filed by music producer Rodney Jones alleges that Combs, both sexually assaulted him and forced him to have sex with prostitutes.
The lawsuit further claims that Paul is an associate who obtains drugs and guns for Combs, and is also responsible for paying sex workers.
Diddy, through his attorney, has denied all allegations of wrongdoing and called the property searches "excessive."
An entertainment website reported that federal agents intercepted Combs' plane at the airport prior to the raids.
Paul was released from jail on bond Tuesday morning. The investigation into Combs is ongoing.
