DeMar DeRozan chases away a Calabasas culprit looking to break into Kyle Jenner’s home.
Los Angeles is no stranger to its fair share of home invasions, and it’s certainly not breaking news that a celebrity or two are the preferential targets of such instances. They’re often caused by criminals or crazed fans. In this particular instance, it was the latter.
Last month, San Antonio Spurs all-star, DeMar DeRozan encountered a burglar in his Los Angeles home. According to TMZ, the man came in contact with one of DeRozan’s children. DeRozan, who stands at 6’6″ and 220 pounds, quickly chased him off of his property after spotting him.

It was not long before the burglar returned to the scene, in search of his actual target–Kylie Jenner. Apparently, the suspect is a huge fan of Jenner, but took the wrong approach to express his fandom, stumbling on DeRozan’s residence instead.
Upon the alleged thief’s re-entry into the community, he was arrested and charged with 1 count of felony burglary. In addition, a restraining order has been filed to prevent him from stepping close to either home. Hopefully, this sends a message to all crazed fans and prevents potential home raids.
