Former Rep. Eric Swalwell, the disgraced California politician accused of rape, was reportedly confronted by FBI agents at San Francisco International Airport, where they seized his electronics as part of a federal criminal probe.

Agents served Swalwell with a search warrant Saturday after he arrived in California and seized his cellphone and other electronics, the Daily Mail reported.

Sources told the outlet, agents also executed additional warrants at Swalwell’s Washington, DC, home Sunday, where they seized other potential evidence.

Swalwell, 45, was reportedly cooperative during the airport encounter.

The investigation comes as the former California congressman faces multiple allegations of sexual misconduct, including claims from a former staffer who alleged that he raped her twice when she was too intoxicated to consent.

Following four women’s public accusations, Swalwell, who was a frontrunner at the time, ended his campaign for governor of California.

The California Post has reached out to the FBI and Swalwell for comment.
