Investigators have seized computers and records from an ACORN office in New Orleans
Investigators searched the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now office in connection with embezzlement and tax fraud allegations.
Assistant attorney general David Caldwell says a warrant was obtained to seize computers, hard drives and other documents.
Caldwell says investigators will copy records and hard drives then return them to ACORN.
He said the allegations of embezzlement were made last year by ACORN board members who were fired after they asked to look at the group's books.
ACORN fired the long-time director of its Louisiana chapter last month, citing a lack of accountability.
