Detectives from the Los Angeles Police Department showed up at Gene Simmons' Benedict Canyon home on Thursday, August 20. The LAPD's Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force came with a search warrant as part of an ongoing investigation.
"Today, members of the Los Angeles Police Department visited Mr. and Mrs. Simmons at their home to discuss a crime that may have occurred on their property last year while Mr. Simmons was away on tour with KISS," his representative said in a statement.
"Neither Mr. Simmons nor any member of his family is a person of interest in the investigation and they are cooperating fully with the investigation," the rep added. "At this time, the police have requested that MR. Simmons and his family not discuss the investigation publicly so as not to compromise it."
Without revealing details of the investigation, Simmons' wife took it to Twitter share her thoughts after the unexpected visit from the LAPD, "Thanks for your support. We couldn't be more horrified that someone used our residence for such heinous crimes. Law enforcement is on it." She added, "Goodnight and don't forget to change your passwords!!"
