A man was arrested after crashing a car into the front gate of Jennifer Aniston’s home in Los Angeles, California, authorities said on Tuesday.
Police told KABC-TV that the Friends star was home at the time of the crash.
The incident occurred at about 12.20pm on Monday in the wealthy Bel Air neighborhood, according to officer Jeff Lee of the LA police department.
Online property records show a home on that block owned by a trust run by Jennifer Aniston’s business manager.
Private security guards apprehended the driver and held him until police arrived. Lee described the suspect as a white middle-aged man who has since been identified as Jimmy Wayne Carwyle, who is 48, according to ABC.
“He used his vehicle to ram a gate to the residence,” Lee said.
His booking was reportedly delayed after he complained of back pain which led him to a hospital visit. He is also reported to have a minor criminal history.
Messages were left on Tuesday with representatives and attorneys for Aniston.
Aniston, currently starring in Apple TV’s The Morning Show, purchased the midcentury mansion on a 3.4-acre lot for about $21m in 2012, according to reporting by Architectural Digest.

“Aesthetically, it was the furthest thing from what I wanted, but I immediately had the sense that it could work,” she said to Architectural Digest in 2018. “It’s hard to describe, but I felt a connection. I’m all about cozy. Sexy is important, but comfort is essential. Every corner you turn, you have an experience. Everywhere you look, you get a vista. We worked very hard to get that flow right.”
Her last film role was in the comedy sequel Murder Mystery 2 alongside Adam Sandler. She will next be seen in the fourth season of The Morning Show which begins this year.
