It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

On the "main source" of that news, they labeled the name of the operation as "BITDROP" and after doing some digging, I believe it was "LetTheBitDrop.com [archived version]" and there was also some discussions about it on this forum: Bitcoin Island Party - "The Bit Drop"

I'm not sure if that's the one. That website has been "inactive" for years now, and I don't think the police would name their operation BitDrop when the website was letthebitdrop. That is way too similar.
