Police search Neverland ranch

Sheriff’s investigators conducted a search of Michael Jackson’s Neverland ranch today, a department spokesman said.

Sergeant Chris Pappas confirmed a warrant was served at the Californian rural estate but he would not release any more information.

Jackson has already been charged with child molestation, and his Neverland ranch was searched previously. He faces trial next year.

The search warrant was served at 9am and investigators remained there into the late morning.
