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.
Okay it’s official. I like her.
Interesting story, but I was unable to locate another source for this. You’d think this would be all over the tabloids at least..
Good one! Hahaha! Yes, I do hope this makes the case for the 2nd Amendment.
I thought she was a raging liberal. I wonder what she looks like with a gun in her hand.
Wow! I didn’t know she owned a gun and knew how to use it. Good for her!
Me too.
Justice was served.
Nice that Jennifer had a gun in her possession. Now I hope that every US citizen will have that same right after Zero assumes his throne.
I would have shot them.
I’m having a real hard time believing this :^
I thought she was suppose to be spreading her wealth, not holding someone at gunpoint for taking what now rightfully belongs to him. I’m so confused.
Also, did she just happen to have her gun with her, or did she make him wait while she ran and got it?
May be true, but I'll wait and see....
Journalistically, what is the significance or relevane to the last sentence in that story?
Anyone? Bueller?
I would have never expected this of Ms. Aniston.
Never.
What a pleasant surprize.
I thought Hollywood was against guns.
I’m going to assume that this is satire until proven otherwise. However, if it *is* true, hmm, Jennifer Aniston with a large-caliber handgun...
...I’ll be in my bunk.

She’s lucky she had the gun in the house. Also, with her money, she might think about investing in an alarm system.
“Aniston reportedly held the suspect, 33-year-old Tadd Bruce, at gunpoint “
AhA!
She better watch it. I can imagine a whole lot of strange men traveling across the country, breaking into her house and waiting for her to return: “Oh! Hold me at gunpoint! Make me clean for you! Yes!”
