(Picture: PA Archive)A suspect has been taken in custody after allegedly burglarising the childhood home of singer Billie Eilish in Los Angeles on Thursday night.
According to the LAPD, authorities responded to a call in the Highland Park neighbourhood after it was reported that a man in dark clothing and a black mask hopped over a fence.
It is not yet known if anything was taken nor if the Grammy winning singer, 21, or anyone else was present at the two-bedroom home when the incident occurred.
Video footage of the suspect’s arrest showed a man handcuffed and restrained by at least three LAPD officers.
ABC7 correspondent Chris Cristi also shared aerial shots of Eilish’s childhood home on Twitter and informed his followers that that LAPD robbery detectives are investigating the incident.
The Standard has reached out to Billie Eilish’s representative for comment.
The Bad Guy hitmaker and her producer brother Finneas, 25, grew up at the Highland Park home with their parents Maggie Baird and Patrick O’Connell, who still own the property.
The award-winning songstress has previously given fans a look into her childhood home in the 2021 Apple TV+ documentary The World’s A Little Blurry.
In the one-off, viewers watched the star as a teenager recording one of her hit songs from her brother’s bedroom, where she recorded her debut album, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?.
In the doc, she shared: “We made this album in our bedroom where we grew up in so it’s really like anything is possible”.
Back in 2019, the pair welcomed CBS Sunday Morning’s Gayle King into their childhood and revealed how she and Finneas created music at their home studio.
Her producer brother also revealed that their parents slept on a futon in the living room so that the siblings could each have their own bedroom.
