Tom Hanks and wife actress Rita Wilson’s home in Los Angeles was reportedly burglarized, making the superstar couple the latest celebrities to have their home hit by burglars.

Law enforcement sources told TMZ that a few weeks back, the guest home on the property of the 68-year-old actor was broken into in broad daylight by thieves who smashed the glass to get in.

Sources said the break-in set off the alarm, but apparently didn’t deter the thieves. Luckily, both the “Forrest Gump” star and his wife were out of town and were not injured in the attack on their property, the outlet noted.

The main home was not breached and it is unclear what, if anything, was stolen. Sources said Hanks wasn’t the target, but another victim like many of the stars who have had their homes hit, like Billie Eilish’s family, Drake, and Goldie Hawn, KTVU noted.

Speaking in June on the SiriusXM podcast “Let’s Talk Off Camera with Kelly Ripa,” the 78-year-old actress said their home had been burglarized twice in four months, as previously reported.

LA Police Chief Dominic Choi told the Board of Police Commissioners in July that the burglaries are “happening very quickly,” NBC Los Angeles reported.

“We’re not seeing the entire house being ransacked,” Choi said. “These individuals that are conducting these high-end burglaries know what they’re looking for, and they’re in and out in a few minutes.”

In March, the LAPD said there had been over 900 residential burglaries across the city since January, some of which were committed by burglars who may be using new technology to circumvent home security systems.

On March 4, the Wilshire department of the LAPD acknowledged, “Wilshire area has been subjected to various residential burglaries, involving 3-4 suspects using Wi-Fi jammers as they enter victims’ residences. The Los Angeles Police Department is seeking your help to deter such burglaries.”

No arrests have been announced in the reported burglary at the Hanks home as of the time of this publication.
