Intruders Target Brad Pitt’s Los Angeles Home During Film Premiere
Actor Brad Pitt’s residence was burglarized by a trio of thieves while he attended a film premiere in London, raising concerns about celebrity home security in Los Angeles.
Brad Pitt's home in Los Angeles was the target of a burglary by three thieves who broke in late Wednesday night, according to reports from the Los Angeles Police Department. The suspects accessed the property in the Los Feliz neighborhood through a front window, proceeding to ransack the premises. While authorities did not explicitly confirm the home belonged to the Oscar-winning actor, the address is consistent with a property Pitt purchased earlier this year.
The thieves reportedly made off with stolen items, though details on what was taken remain undisclosed. During the incident, Pitt was reportedly in the UK, attending the London premiere of his new film, "F1," set to be released on Friday. He was seen at the event alongside fellow actors Tom Cruise and racing champion Lewis Hamilton, who holds seven Formula One World Drivers' Championship titles.
The Los Angeles police confirmed that the break-in occurred around 10:30 PM local time, but they have yet to determine the value of the items stolen or whether Pitt was home at the time of the offense. An inquiry into the matter has been initiated, as Pitt's representatives have also been contacted by the BBC for comments.
The residence, a spacious three-bedroom home located just outside Griffith Park, is characterized by its large fence and surrounding greenery, intended to ensure privacy for its occupants. The burglary incident adds to a growing list of security breaches involving high-profile individuals in Los Angeles, having been preceded by similar incidents affecting celebrities such as Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban. Just last month, an individual was arrested on charges of stalking and vandalism after allegedly attempting to ram his vehicle into the gate of Pitt's ex-wife, Jennifer Aniston's residence.
