Actress Felicity Huffman was arrested at gunpoint on Tuesday for her alleged involvement in the US college admissions scandal. According to reports on TMZ.com, seven Federal Bureau of Investigation agents arrived at the Desperate Housewives star’s Los Angeles home at 6 am on Tuesday and had their guns drawn as they ordered her to surrender. Huffman, her husband, William H. Macy, and their two daughters, Sofia and Georgia, were reportedly asleep at the time of the arrest.
The Cake actress was one of dozens of people including Fuller House star Lori Loughlin and her husband, Mossimo Giannulli who supposedly took part in the scam. ABC News obtained court documents that alleged Huffman “made a purported charitable contribution of $15,000 to participate in the college entrance exam cheating scheme on behalf of her eldest daughter.”
