An extravagant mansion situated in the Hollywood Hills fell victim to vandalism on Thursday, allegedly caused by a group of squatters.
The Los Angeles Police Department swiftly responded to a distress call regarding a distressed woman at the mansion. Upon their arrival, they discovered the squatters occupying the residence, as reported by ABC7.
Although the officers apprehended several individuals, they were unable to make any arrests. The lack of a property owner and the absence of a formal complaint obstructed the initiation of a criminal investigation, stated ABC7.
The aftermath of this incident revealed extensive property damage, consisting of shattered glass, graffiti, vandalized furniture, and debris scattered across the rooftop and grounds.
Reputable online real estate platforms estimate the worth of this six-bedroom, 12-bathroom mansion, containing a luxurious pool and amenities, to be over $10 million. ABC7 disclosed that various sites referred to it as a REO bank-owned foreclosure, indicating that it failed to sell during the foreclosure process and is currently owned by a mortgage lender, bank, or mortgage investor.
ABC7 further emphasized that this was not the first instance in which the authorities were summoned to this property due to trespassing. Back in January of 2022, a SWAT team responded to a distress call reporting the presence of a squatter who adamantly refused to vacate the premises, even though the actual resident had returned home. Armed with a shotgun and accompanied by a dog, the squatter reluctantly surrendered after hours of resistance upon the arrival of the police.
