Before Super Bowl XLVII, Sports Illustrated reported that Baltimore Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis Lewis sought help from a company called Sports With Alternatives To Steroids (S.W.A.T.S), which says its deer-antler spray and pills contained a naturally occurring banned product connected to human growth hormone.
S.W.A.T.S headquarters in Fultondale, Ala. was raided on Friday afternoon by investigators with the Alabama Attorney General's Consumer Protection Office, according to AL.com reporter Carol Robinson. According to the report, S.W.A.T.S was raided because of "numerous serious and willful violations of Alabama's deceptive trade practices act."
Authorities seized $200,000 in cash and vehicles along with implementing a temporary restraining order that allows court appointed receivers to take over the business and all company assets.
