LOS 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.
Aniston is neighbors on the street with her best friend, the actress Courtney Cox of the sit-com "Friends," and her husband, David Arquette.
Glad to see Ms. Aniston supports the 2nd Amendment. And glad to see that, instead of sitting him down to talk to him about the injustices that befell him to bring him to the point of society forcing him to rob to survive, she made him pay the consequences of his criminal actions.
Just more name dropping.
I can’t wrap my brain around this one. Too Hollyweird.
Besides, as pretty as I think she is, “guns” is not something she has..
Don’t use Google. Use Dogpile!

The story appears to be quite old, as the guy was already sentenced to a year.
And the lib celebrities are also allowed to have bodyguards that pack heat.
Well, yes but...
is the reader supposed to be impressed that someone famous lives near someone famous in a neighborhood of famous people?
Worse than gratuitous.
This particular has to be absolute BS.
Where’d she get the gun? No freakin way! Maybe I could see Ann Coulter doing this, but Jennifer Aniston? I don’ believe it.
I’ve heard a story very similar to this some time ago where the perp was made to clean up the mess, but I can’t remember who or where.

So, She must of had a gun on her?
True, but not the gossip blogs. It would be all over Perezhilton.com, TMZ, D-listed, etc. It's been no place. It's BS.
My guess is BS.
“Raise sand?”
No way.
Its a hoax.
I read the exact same story before, word fr word, only with an average person holding the gun.
