A high-profile Los Angeles neighborhood, home to celebrities like Angelina Jolie, Kristen Bell, and Brie Larson, was the scene of a dramatic arrest over the weekend after an alleged trespasser slipped past security.
Law enforcement sources confirmed the incident unfolded Sunday in Los Feliz, an affluent gated community east of Hollywood that’s no stranger to celebrity residents—or curious outsiders.
🚓 Suspect Caught After Attempting to Flee
According to reports, the man bypassed the neighborhood’s secured entrance and made his way onto a private street where Dax Shepard and Kristen Bell own a residence. Fortunately, the couple was not home at the time of the breach.
Neighbors and security personnel quickly alerted police. When officers arrived, the suspect allegedly tried to make a run for it but was swiftly apprehended.
📹 A video shared on the Citizen app shows officers detaining the man, his head briefly visible as they handled the situation.
🌟 A-List Residents On High Alert
While police confirmed the suspect didn’t break into any homes, the incident has left locals on edge. The neighborhood, known for its multi-million-dollar estates and A-list homeowners, includes stars like:
- 🎬 Angelina Jolie
- 🧚♀️ Kristen Bell & Dax Shepard
- 🏆 Brie Larson
The breach is the latest in a string of celebrity security scares across Los Angeles in recent years.
Earlier this year, Jolie’s ex Brad Pitt had an uninvited visitor at his property—though thankfully, he was in Tokyo at the time.
🚨 A Growing Concern for Hollywood’s Elite
Home invasions and trespassing incidents have been on the rise in L.A.’s wealthy enclaves, prompting many stars to ramp up their security measures with 24-hour patrols, advanced surveillance systems, and even private security teams.
Though no homes were entered during Sunday’s incident, neighbors say it’s a wake-up call.
💬 “It’s scary knowing someone can get this close,” one local resident told Citizen users in the app’s comment section.
🛡️ Police Urge Vigilance
Authorities confirmed the suspect is a known trespasser with prior incidents. He was taken into custody without injuries and could face charges related to trespassing and resisting arrest.
As for the stars of Los Feliz, it’s unclear if they were notified of the breach—but with Jolie, Bell, and others calling the area home, security teams are likely reviewing protocols to ensure it doesn’t happen again.
