Brad Pitt’s Los Angeles residence was broken into by a group of burglars late Wednesday night while the actor was out of the country, according to two law enforcement sources who spoke to NBC News, Sky News’ US partner.
The Los Angeles Police Department confirmed that three suspects forced entry through a front window of the home in Los Feliz and “ransacked the location.” Authorities would not identify the owner, but property records confirm the address matches a house Pitt purchased in 2023.
Investigators said the intruders fled with stolen items, though it remains unclear exactly what was taken. The Oscar-winning actor was not home at the time.
Pitt, 60, had traveled to London earlier in the week for the premiere of his new film F1, where he appeared alongside Tom Cruise and seven-time Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton.
Police said the burglary occurred around 10:30 p.m. local time Wednesday. They declined to confirm whether Pitt’s representatives had provided an inventory of missing property or to estimate the value of any stolen items. The BBC reported that Pitt’s team had also been contacted for comment.
The secluded three-bedroom property, surrounded by fencing and dense greenery near Griffith Park and the iconic Hollywood Sign, is designed to shield residents from public view.
The break-in is the latest in a string of celebrity home burglaries across Los Angeles. Earlier this year, the homes of Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban were also targeted by thieves.
Last month, a man was arrested on suspicion of stalking and vandalism after allegedly ramming his car into the gate of the home belonging to Pitt’s ex-wife, Jennifer Aniston.
