OS ANGELES, CA. (January 3, 2009) A burglar in Los Angeles chose the wrong celebrity to mess with -- quite literally.
Actress Jennifer Aniston and her personal assistant Debi Burke returned to Aniston’s Hollywood Hills home yesterday after a week away to find that thieves had emptied almost everything in the house.
"Tears just rolled down my face as I walked in and saw everything gone and piles of trash all over my home," Aniston reportedly said.
Aniston sent her assistant to the local police precinct to file a report while she inspected the piles left behind. As she walked back into the sunroom, a man walked through the back door straight into her, Aniston said.
"Jenifer caught the thief red-handed in her home," Burke said. "And what is even crazier, the man even had Jennifer’s hat sitting right on his head."
Aniston reportedly held the suspect, 33-year-old Tadd Bruce, at gunpoint and told him to sit on the floor until she decided what to do.
"She made this man clean up all the mess he made, piles of stuff, he had thrown out of the drawers and cabi-nets onto the floor," Burke said.
When Burke and the police arrived, Bruce complained about being forced to clean the home at gunpoint.
"This man had the nerve to raise sand about us making him clean up the mess he made in my house," Aniston said incredulously. "The police officer laughed at him when he complained and said anybody else would have shot him dead."
Police arrested Bruce 2 p.m. Friday on burglary and theft charges. He was being held in the Los Angeles County Detention Facility on a $30,000 bond.

Not that I care about celebs, but I thought it was interesting. YMMV.
