After getting a call about a drone sighting over the property, Los Angeles police officers visited actor Will Smith’s home on Tuesday. It is unclear who reported the drone, but according to a police spokesperson, the cops were unable to locate the drone. According to the spokesperson, a police vehicle was dispatched to Smith’s Calabasas mansion after receiving a call. “However, they were unable to locate the drone because it had already left the area by the time officers arrived,” the spokesperson added. It was unclear who called the cops. “It could have been the Smiths or their next-door neighbor.” “We have sent that unit over there to help locate the drone and see if there was a paparazzi or whatever was going on,” said the spokesperson.
The emergency response came just days after the actor shocked the world by slapping comedian Chris Rock at the Academy Awards. The ceremony’s host, Chris Rock, had made a crude remark about Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett-Smith.
The comedian-actor did not file a police report, but the Academy has launched an investigation into the incident. Will Smith won Best Actor minutes after slapping Rock but later apologized to the comedian for his “unacceptable” behavior.
There have been calls to deprive Smith of his Oscar.
In an Instagram post on Tuesday, Pinkett-Smith broke her silence about the incident. “This is a healing season, and I’m here for it,” she wrote in the post.
The joke was about Pinkett-tightly Smith’s cropped hair, which enraged Smith. She suffers from alopecia areata, a hair loss condition. In 2018, the actress spoke out about her illness.
