The Los Angeles Police Department confirmed they responded to a break-in on Wednesday night at a home in the 2300 block of North Edgemont Street in the Los Feliz area of L.A., according to the Associated Press.
Three suspects entered the home through the front window, searched through the property, and left with various items, according to Officer Drake Madison, per the AP.
Madison added he couldn’t disclose who owns or lives in the home, and there’s no information yet on what was stolen.
However, Pitt purchased the home for $5.5 million in April 2023, according to the AP, which cited the commercial real estate website Traded.
Reportedly, Pitt was not at the residence during the break-in, as he’s currently promoting his latest film, F1. The film hits theaters today.
