Listen up, folks! Here's the lowdown on the latest celebrity drama. As it turns out, a fella's landed in the slammer after crashing his motor through the gate of actress Jennifer Aniston's crib, according to Officer Jeff Lee from the LAPD.[1]
The incident went down on the 900 block of Airole Way, a swanky part of Bel Air, Monday around 12:20 p.m.[1] Officer Lee tells us it was like a scene from a action flick – a suspect, reportedly a white dude in his 70s, went full tilt Boost, driving his whip through the gate leading straight to the property!
The home's owner, you bet your boots, was home at the time of the incident. Thankfully, there was a security goon on the premises who nabbed the suspect until the LAPD showed up and carted him off without a hitch.[1]
Police are still on the fence as to whether this was a lucky accident or a deliberate smash-and-grab operation.[1] Though, considering the car intentionally busted through the gate, it looks like the residence and potentially its resident might have been squarely in the suspect's sights.
