LOS ANGELES — FBI agents searched the home of a Los Angeles deputy mayor this week as part of an investigation into whether he made a bomb threat against City Hall, officials said. The Los Angeles Police Department confirmed that officers responded “earlier this year” to a bomb threat against City Hall. “Our initial investigation revealed that the source of the threat was likely from Brian Williams, Deputy Mayor for Public Safety,” the department said in a statement Wednesday. The FBI remains the investigating agency.” Williams’ attorney, Dmitry Gorin, told the Los Angeles Times that his client “strongly maintains his innocence and intends to vigorously fight the allegations.” Zach Seidl, a spokesperson for Bass, said Williams has been placed on administrative leave.
