Police responded to Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass‘ home on Sunday for an attempted burglary.
Ephraim Matthew Hunter, 29, faced arrest and charges of burglary for allegedly breaking into Bass' residence, the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) wrote on X.
The Daily Caller reported the suspect allegedly entered the mayor's home by smashing a window. At the time of the incident, Bass and her family were inside the home, according to law enforcement, though it's unknown if she met the alleged intruder.
“Around 6:40 AM this morning an individual smashed a window to gain entry into the Getty House while occupied,” the LAPD alleged. When officers arrived, they apprehended the suspect without incident.
Getty House is Bass' official home, and is located on South Irving Boulevard in Windsor Square, nearly five miles west of Los Angeles City Hall.
Hunter is currently detained with bail set at $100,000, CBS News reported.
Officials have reportedly not yet confirmed if Hunter, the accused, has a lawyer. No one was injured during the alleged break-in, the LAPD wrote. The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) is actively investigating the circumstances surrounding the alleged break-in.
Mayor Bass expressed her gratitude towards the LAPD for their prompt response and the arrest of the suspect, according to CBS News.
“The Mayor is grateful to LAPD for responding and arresting the suspect,” Bass' Deputy Mayor of Communications Zach Seidl reportedly said in a statement.
