New eyewitness accounts are raising questions about the FBI’s secretive 2018 dig for a legendary cache of Civil War-era gold. Two men who were near the excavation site in rural Pennsylvania have told The Associated Press they heard loud noises early in the morning. Later, they say they saw a convoy with an armored truck that appeared heavily weighed down. A treasure hunter who led FBI agents to the site accuses the agency of conducting a secretive overnight dig and spiriting away hundreds of millions of dollars in gold. The FBI denies it worked overnight and says its excavation didn't produce any gold. The treasure hunter is currently suing the FBI over access to records about the dig.
