Brad’s home in the ‘pit’

Blitz Bureau

NEW DELHI: Hollywood star Brad Pitt’s home was ransacked by burglars, when the actor was not on the premises. Police are investigating a burglary at a Los Angeles home reportedly owned by Pitt. The actor was not on the premises at the time of the break-in as he has been traveling to promote his new racing thriller “F1,” reports variety.com. A carpet premiere event for the film was held in London.

The Los Angeles Police Department confirmed to NBC News that authorities responded to a break-in on the 2300 block of North Edgemont Street in the Los Feliz neighborhood of the city. Three suspects reportedly breached the premises by climbing a fence and entering through a front window, “ransacking” the home and fleeing with an undisclosed amount of property. The value of the items taken was not disclosed. The suspects have not been publicly identified.

The burglarized property was purchased by Pitt in 2023 at a cost of $5.5 million, according to architecture magazine Domus. The luxurious home was previously owned by oil heiress Aileen Getty, who, in exchange, acquired Pitt’s own old house in the eastern Hollywood Hills at a cost of $33 million.

Pitt has been promoting the Warner Bros. release of Apple Studios’ “F1,” which began preview screenings and will open theatrically through the coming weekend. In a recent interview with GQ, the 61-year-old actor described how the big-budget blockbuster reaffirmed his thrill for acting.
