Angelina Jolie and the kids interviewed by the FBI to fact-check plane incident with Brad Pitt

A few weeks ago, various report claimed that Brad Pitt had a physical altercation with his eldest child, Maddox. To check on the same, FBI agents visited Angelina Jolie and the six kids in Malibu, where they are now residing as the divorce is finalised.

A source of TMZ confirmed that two FBI agents paid a visit to the household and spent more than three hours speaking to Angelina and the children. The agents apparently were there not as part of an investigation, but were only tasked to collect facts on the incident between Maddox and Brad. If there is enough information that calls for a full-fledged investigation, one will begin.
