LL COOL J, rapper and star of CBS’ “NCIS Los Angeles,” confronted a burglar in his Studio City home overnight and physically detained him with his own hands.
Los Angeles police officials confirmed to CBS2 that they received a call around 1 a.m. from a female who said there was a prowler in her home. She later told a 911 operator that her father was with the suspect downstairs.
Police did not confirm if the home belonged to the rapper, however, public records list LL COOL J and his wife, Simone, as the owners.
Spokesperson Claudine Joseph also released the following statement:
“LL COOL J, and his family, are safe and thank everyone for their thoughts and concern. As a father, husband and citizen, he is committed to keeping his family safe and is cooperating with authorities on this private matter.”
The 44-year-old, whose real name is James Todd Smith, heard noises coming from the first floor of the home and discovered the suspect.
The “Mama Said Knock You Out” rapper then confronted the 50-year-old intruder, police said. The unidentified suspect, who suffered minor injuries, was arrested without incident.
Neighbors say the burglar picked the wrong house, KNX1070′s Ed Mertz reports.
