Brown contends that investigators procured these warrants by falsely representing that they required the CSLI and cell-site simulator information to locate and arrest him. The Government vigorously denies falsity. We need not resolve this dispute or ask the District Court to do so. First, to procure a search warrant, the Government need show only probable cause to believe that the search will yield incriminating evidence-or, in this case, facilitate an authorized arrest. It need not show that it has exhausted other investigative means without success.\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/ww3.ca2.uscourts.gov\/decisions\/isysquery\/3a090b9d-dddc-438f-8548-bafa9f2405ad\/7\/doc\/24-362_so.pdf#xml=https:\/\/ww3.ca2.uscourts.gov\/decisions\/isysquery\/3a090b9d-dddc-438f-8548-bafa9f2405ad\/7\/hilite\/\">United States v.
