NYC jail housing Sean "Diddy" Combs target of "interagency operation," feds say

NEW YORK -- The New York City jail where Sean "Diddy" Combs is being held was targeted with an interagency operation Monday, federal prison officials said. 

The Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn is currently housing Combs on sex trafficking and racketeering charges. Other high-profile inmates, from R. Kelly to Sam Bankman-Fried, have been held there over the years.

The Federal Bureau of Prisons told CBS News in a statement the operation was "designed to achieve our shared goal of maintaining a safe environment for both our employees and the incarcerated individuals housed at MDC Brooklyn."
