Four people have been arrested in connection with a burglary at Brad Pitt’s Los Angeles home in June, authorities said Monday night.
A smash-and-grab theft crew hopped a fence at Pitt’s Los Feliz residence on June 25, then ransacked the place and made off with unspecified valuables, police said at the time. Pitt was not home at the time.
Jaquory Arman Watson and Damari Zair Charles, both 18, were two of the four suspects identified Monday, according to KNBC. Watson and Charles were arrested last week for an unrelated burglary in Orange County, sources told the station. The other two suspects have not been publicly identified.
Watson and Charles are being held without bail in Orange County and pleaded not guilty to the other burglary on Monday, Entertainment Weekly reported. Charges in the Pitt burglary are expected to follow.
Investigators believe all four robbers targeted a series of homes in wealthy neighborhoods across Southern California, ABC News reported. They do not believe Pitt was targeted specifically. He was on the road promoting “F1: The Movie” during the break-in.
The break-in at Pitt’s home was one of a number of burglaries affecting various stars across Southern California this summer. In late July, thieves attempted to bust into Teddi Mellencamp’s residence while she was home, and Los Angeles Dodgers star pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto’s home was targeted the following week.
