Actor Will Smith has been reportedly visited by cops at his residence on Tuesday afternoon.
Two days after the actor slapped Chris Rock at the Oscars, Los Angeles Sheriff department arrived at his house. At the afternoon’s 2:40 p.m, a patrol car arrived outside the King Richar star’s mansion. Photos from the report were shared by Splash News.
Deputy Lizette Salcon later said that the police arrived after someone spotted a drone flying in the neighbourhood. “We just sent that unit over there to try to locate the drone and see if there was a paparazzi or what was going on,” Deputy Lizette said by adding, “But when the deputies got there, they weren’t able to locate the drone. It had already left the area.”
