Actor Dylan Sprouse tackled a home invader who tried to break into his Hollywood Hills estate and held the suspect at gunpoint before restraining the burglar until police arrived.
The would-be thief targeted Sprouse’s home shortly after midnight Friday, leading the star to confront the suspect and wrangle him to the ground, according to a photographer on the scene.
A source close to Sprouse told TMZ that the actor was shaken up but not injured as a result of the wild run-in. The outlet also reported that he held the suspect at gunpoint.
Sprouse’s wife, model Barbara Palvin, made the call to 911, the outlet reported.
The Los Angeles Police Department confirmed a report of the burglary at 12:37 a.m. Friday on the 2400 block of Holly Dr. and said the suspect was arrested.
Photos showed the man being led away by police outside the property.
Sprouse bought the four-bedroom, two-bathroom home, which is valued at nearly $2 million, back in 2021.
The actor starred on the series Suite Life of Zack & Cody alongside his twin brother, Cole.
He most recently starred in the 2025 film “Under Fire” alongside Mason Gooding, Cuba Gooding Jr.’s son.
