Yes but it's the local authorities that are saying the calls are coming from Ethiopia. Have you seen local police?

This isn't merely local police for one jurisdiction saying this. These are multiple state agencies which have been working with the FBI.

The article I linked isn't behind a paywall, and it's definitely worth the read. They go into more detail as to how they came to that conclusion.

Right but the quote from the article says local agencies stated that the calls were coming from Ethiopia or wherever but the FBI declined comment.

Edit: I'm slow today, still recovering from surgery and my reading comprehension is in the toilet. Reading the NPR article you shared now

It happens, and I'm being a little lazy. I didn't want to have to copy and paste the five or so scattered paragraphs that explained more of the detail.
