Oscar-winning actor Brad Pitt’s Los Angeles home was broken into and ransacked by three unidentified suspects late Wednesday night, according to a statement by the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD).
Authorities say the burglary occurred around 10:30 p.m. local time at a property in the Los Feliz neighbourhood. While the LAPD did not officially confirm the identity of the homeowner, the address corresponds with a residence purchased by Pitt in 2023. Sources confirm the actor was not at home during the incident.
The suspects reportedly gained entry by breaking through a front window before ransacking the property and fleeing with stolen items. The exact value of the items taken remains unclear, and police have yet to provide further details.
Pitt, 60, was in the UK earlier in the week for the London premiere of his upcoming film F1, due for release on Friday. He appeared on the red carpet alongside fellow actor Tom Cruise and Formula One legend Lewis Hamilton.
The Los Feliz property, a spacious three-bedroom home located near Griffith Park and the iconic Hollywood Sign, is known for its privacy. High fences and dense greenery shield it from public view.
This burglary adds to a concerning trend of celebrity-targeted break-ins in Los Angeles. In recent months, stars such as Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban have reportedly been victims of similar incidents. Last month, a separate incident involved a man arrested for stalking and vandalism after allegedly crashing his vehicle into the gate of Jennifer Aniston’s residence—Pitt’s former wife.
Representatives for Pitt have yet to comment on the incident, and the LAPD says the investigation remains ongoing.
