Haslam says Pilot Flying J is cooperating with FBI.
The FBI secured Knoxville, Tenn.-based Pilot Flying J headquarters Monday, NBC Sports reported.
It remains unclear why FBI and IRS officials are looking into Pilot Flying J, run by Jimmy Haslam, who is also the owner of the Cleveland Browns. Haslam said in a statement that he is willing to cooperate with their efforts.
“The FBI secured our headquarters today and informed us they are investigating Pilot Flying J,” Haslam said in an email statement to the Knoxville News Sentinel. “We will cooperate appropriately with any and all external investigations and conduct our own. I believe and trust there has been no wrongdoing. The integrity of our company always has been job No. 1.”
