CSI descends on Brad Pitt's sprawling LA mansion to find 'a real mess' after terrifying incident
Crime scene investigators descended on Brad Pitt 's Los Angeles mansion on Thursday after it was terrorized by thieves who smashed windows and trashed the property. Pictures obtained by captured the CSI team trawling the home for evidence in the hours after the incident. Three suspects allegedly broke into the star's home in the celebrity enclave of Los Feliz about 10.30pm on Wednesday, the Los Angeles Police Department said. One source told the LA Times that the criminals smashed a window before entering the home and made 'a real mess' of it. They allegedly stole Pitt's possessions, and overturned his furniture as though they were 'looking for what they could take of value,' a source told the publication. Pitt's belongings were tossed all over the floor during the crime, an insider said The 61-year-old Hollywood star was not home at the time. It is unclear if his girlfriend Ines de Ramon was inside. One masked officer wearing blue gloves and carrying a toolkit was seen at the property as investigators tried to look for clues. Plain clothing officers also came back and forth from the home as the investigation continued. Investigators earlier told NBC News the thieves climbed over Pitt's front fence and ransacked the home, stealing an unknown amount of property. It comes after a string of celebrities have seen their Los Angeles-area homes broken into in recent years. This includes Pitt's ex-girlfriend Jennifer Aniston, as well as couples Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban and Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson. It is unclear if the LA-area burglaries are connected. Pitt has been promoting his new movie, film, F1, and was most recently spotted with de Ramon at the London premiere earlier this week. F1 was made in collaboration with Formula One's governing body, the FIA, with seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton being one of the producers. In the films, Pitt plays the troubled race car driver Sonny Hayes, who races against rookie rival Joshua Pearce (Damson Idris) as they battle it out at various Grand Prixes around the world. Pitt was joined by de Ramon on the red carpet for the film as their relationship goes from strength to strength. It comes after Pitt recently settled his painful eight-year divorce battle with ex wife Angelina Jolie. A source previously told the Daily Mail that despite being as happy as could be together, Pitt and de Ramon have no plans to we d. 'Brad is totally in love with Ines, but he doesn't want to go down the road of marriage and kids,' they said. 'He's been burned badly by the divorce from Angelina and his kids wanting little if nothing to do with him. He's 61 and loving his life just the way it is.' Pitt and Jolie are gearing for a trial over their shared property Château Miraval, the sprawling French estate where they tied the knot in 2014. The property, known for its award-winning rosé, has become ground zero in the stars' years-long legal war. Jolie, 49, tried to shut down Pitt's claims that she sold her stake in the estate behind his back, despite what he says was a verbal agreement to hold onto their 50-50 split. But now that her motion's been denied, the case is moving full speed ahead. The trial date hasn't been locked in yet, and several key motions are still on the table.
