It turned out to be not a mission impossible to get onto Tom Cruise's property.
A
trespasser climbed a fence to gain access to the actor's Beverly Hills
estate. And police say a security guard promptly used a taser to stop
the would-be prowler, reports AP. Cruise, 50, wasn't home at the time.
The
man turned out to be an intoxicated neighbor who may have mistakenly
entered the property. Lt. Lincoln Hoshino told AP the confrontation
happened around about 9:30 p.m. PT Sunday when the actor and his family
weren't home.
The officer tells City News Service that the man was
identified as a 41-year-old neighbor who lives in an adjacent property,
and was drunk at the time.
Entertainment Tonight reports the man was arrested for trespassing and treated at a hospital for any problems stemming from the stun gun.
