Cops Scoop Reporter at Brangelina's House
Wed., Jan. 30, 2008 4:30 PM PST by Natalie Finn
Everyone wants to be on the Brangelina beat these days.
A man claiming to be a freelance reporter was arrested outside Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's Hollywood Hills abode Wednesday afternoon, Los Angeles Police Department spokeswoman Officer Karen Smith told E! Online.
The Jolie-Pitt clan, which is rumored to be expanding, was not home at the time.
Smith said that their housekeeper called the cops at 12 p.m. after noticing a silver car blocking the entrance to the house in the 5700 block of tony Briarcliff Road. She also saw a man, who police later identified as 25-year-old Eric Ray Mitchell of Hollywood, asking passersby where Pitt's house was.
When officers arrived at the scene, they took Mitchell into custody on a private person's arrest (like citizen's arrest) and impounded his vehicle. Smith couldn't say whether he was still in custody as of 4 p.m.
Pitt and Jolie most recently went public at the 14th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards, where the latter was nominated for her heart-tugging turn in A Mighty Heart. The 32-year-old actress went home empty-handed, but she garnered plenty of attention by sipping water all evening and donning a figure-skimming gown.
