A spokesperson from the Los Angeles Police Department stated at the time that officers from the Northeast division responded to a call in the 2300 block of Edgemont Street at around 10:30 p.m. on June 25. According to the report, three individuals allegedly scaled a fence, entered the yard, broke in through a front window and proceeded to "ransack" the property.
Pitt's representative declined to comment on the matter at the time.
The suspects reportedly took various items before fleeing.
Pitt was not at home during the June 25 incident. He was away promoting his film "F1."
