Footage has surfaced showing the aftermath of the federal raid on Diddy‘s Los Angeles home. Additionally, the 54-year-old’s attorney has released a statement on the incident.
TMZ obtained the footage of Diddy’s Holmby Hills mansion and shared the video in a report published Tuesday, March 26. The footage shows various rooms in the mansion left with items thrown about, documents scattered, safes opened, and more.
The outlet adds that federal agents “had a field day with Diddy’s electronic equipment.” As The Shade Room previously reported, the 54-year-old’s hard drives and electronics were reportedly seized during the raid on Monday, March 25.

Social media users shared their reactions to the footage of the aftermath in The Shade Room’s comment section.
According to TMZ, Diddy’s attorney, Aaron Dyer, also shared an exclusive statement about the raids.
“Yesterday [March 25], there was a gross overuse of military-level force as search warrants were executed at Mr. Combs’ residences. There is no excuse for the excessive show of force and hostility exhibited by authorities or the way his children and employees were treated,” Dyer stated. “Mr. Combs was never detained but spoke to and cooperated with authorities. Despite media speculation, neither Mr. Combs nor any of his family members have been arrested nor has their ability to travel been restricted in any way.”
Dyer went on to call the raids on Diddy’s homes an “unprecedented ambush” and “witch hunt.” Ultimately, the attorney explained that no “criminal or civil liability” has been found against Diddy.
“This unprecedented ambush — paired with an advanced, coordinated media presence — leads to a premature rush to judgment of Mr. Combs and is nothing more than a witch hunt based on meritless accusations made in civil lawsuits,” Dyer continued. “There has been no finding of criminal or civil liability with any of these allegations. Mr. Combs is innocent and will continue to fight every single day to clear his name.”
TMZ adds that Diddy is not charged with any crime, has not been arrested, and remains unrestricted in his travel.
