INDIANAPOLIS—Suspended Subway pitchman Jared Fogle’s foundation, which encourages children to avoid the same obesity he experienced in college, faces an uncertain future following a raid at his home two months after the group’s then-executive director was arrested on child pornography charges.
A phone number to the Jared Foundation Inc. was out of service and its website was down Wednesday, a day after federal and state authorities seized electronics and other items from Fogle’s suburban Indianapolis home. Fogle hasn’t been charged with any crime and his attorney, Ron Elberger, said the 37-year-old is cooperating with authorities “in their investigation of unspecified charges.”
Following the raid, Subway suspended its relationship with Fogle, who shed 245 pounds more than 15 years ago as an Indiana University college student, in part by regularly eating the restaurant’s sandwiches.
