Federal and state investigators raided the Hell's Angels Motorcycle Club on American Legion Highway Thursday morning, reportedly as part of a larger investigation into the club across Massachusetts.

An FBI spokesperson confirmed Thursday afternoon that federal agents were carrying out "court-authorized" activity at several clubs across the state, including the club at 560 American Legion Highway. The FBI would not comment further on the matter.

Apart from state and federal investigators, Westport police were on the scene Thursday afternoon.

More information will be added as details emerge.
