"Michigan authorities investigating contamination of the city of Flint’s water supply obtained a search warrant to seize former Governor Rick Snyder’s cell phone and hard drive, according to court documents made public on Monday.

The search warrant, signed on May 19 by a state court judge, listed the Republican ex-governor among more than 60 current and former officials whose electronic devices state investigators had sought.

Flint, a predominately black city with a population of about 100,000 people, was under the control of a state-appointed emergency manager in April 2014 when it switched its water source to the Flint River from Lake Huron. "
