Latest News: Ben Affleck’s LA Home Reportedly Visited by Federal Agents….Read More
Law enforcement officials were pictured outside of the actor’s estate on Sunday.
The FBI reportedly stopped by Ben Affleck’s Los Angeles-area home over the weekend, according to new photos obtained by the Daily Mail.
It’s unclear if the actor was home at the time of the visit, but snapshots show several members of the FBI, identified by the bureau’s acronym emblazoned across the back of their t-shirts and bulletproof vests, alongside members of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department lingering outside his property early on Sunday, Jan. 12.
According to the publication, the law enforcement officials were witnessed waiting outside his Brentwood gate “for several minutes” before they left. The reason for their stop remains unclear. Parade reached out to his representatives for comment but did not hear back by the time of publishing.
The 52-year-old seemingly evacuated the property last week amid the ongoing California fires, driving over to his ex-wife Jennifer Garner’s home, though it was never made clear if he was ordered to evacuate or if he was just checking in on his family—the former couple shares three kids: Violet, 19, Seraphina, 16, and Samuel, 12.
While many have lost their homes, including Mandy Moore, Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag, Ricki Lake, Paris Hilton and more, Affleck’s seems to have made it out unscathed. Although, with many of the fires still raging, it’s not out of the woods just yet.
Garner’s home also appears unharmed thus far, though she did tragically lose a friend who “did not get out in time.”
Firefighters continued to battle the blazes and high winds into Monday, with officials reporting over 23,000 acres burned in the Palisades Fire and over 14,000 acres devastated in the nearby Eaton Fire as of midnight local time.
