(Fargo, ND) -- There are still more questions than answers after a police presence involving Drug Enforcement Administration agents took place Wednesday morning.

The Fargo Police Department, in a statement released to WDAY Radio, said the initial 'planned and proactive operation' occurred early Wednesday at a home near the intersection of 8th street south and 9th avenue south.

It is unclear why DEA officials were at the scene, but a possible drug investigation is expected.

Neighbors in the area say a helicopter was also hovering overhead during the 'operation'.

We have reached out to the DEA, and they have noted that more information is expected in the coming days, and that the investigation involving the operation is ongoing.
