Four arrested after break-in at home reportedly owned by Brad Pitt, say police
Four people have been arrested in connection with a burglary earlier this summer at a Los Angeles home reportedly owned by actor Brad Pitt, police said. Officers responded on June 25 to a break-in at the house in the Los Feliz area of the city. Police said at the time that suspects broke in through the front window, ransacked the home and fled with miscellaneous property. Detectives have made four arrests, Officer Drake Madison said on Tuesday. He said the suspects' names could be released later in the day. Officials could not identify who owned or lived in the home, and no information was available on what was stolen. Pitt reportedly bought the property for 5.5 million US dollars (£4 million) in April 2023, according to Traded, a commercial real estate website. A representative for the actor declined to comment on Tuesday. Pitt had been out of the country in June on a globe-spanning promotional tour for his new movie, F1.
