Police sources told NBC News and the Los Angeles Times that three suspects climbed over a front fence and broke in through the home’s front window before ransacking the location and fleeing with some belongings.

The value of the stolen items has not been disclosed.

Pitt was not home at the time, as he has been on a global promotional tour for his new movie F1.

The 61-year-old actor attended the film’s premiere in London this week. The property was purchased by Pitt in 2023 for $5.5 million, according to Variety magazine.

Pitt is the among the most recent celebrities to have their Los Angeles homes burglarised.

About $500,000 of jewellery was allegedly stolen from the home of French striker Olivier Giroud of MLS side Los Angeles FC in a burglary in February.

That same month, Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s residence was reportedly burglarised.
