Dr. Dre
Dr Dre’s house has been targeted by burglars while he was in hospital with a brain aneurysm.
The 55-year-old hip hop icon was taken to the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles on Monday after falling ill and on Tuesday, four people were reportedly arrested for trying to break into the music mogul’s home in Brentwood.
An LAPD spokesperson told Billboard: Several individuals were hiking over a hill attempting to enter a property.
“They were confronted by six private security [officers] and they fled the location. As officers attempted to pull the vehicle over a short pursuit ensued.”
Per NBC New York, the chase was reportedly set off after infrared cameras at Dre s estate spotted the intruders hopping the fence, and the 55-year-old mogul s security team alerted authorities. Police said the crew ran up a hill and jumped into a white SUV, leading officers on a chase through the winding neighborhood s streets, ending on Sunset Boulevard. According to ABC 7, police said they found a backpack full of burglary tools that included saws and crowbars in the SUV. It appeared that nothing was taken in the incident.
At press time, it is unknown if the alleged perpetrators identified as Raven Queen, 21, Monte Parker, 34, Daveon Crenshaw, 24 and Rayquan Ford, 25 had been released on bond.
