LOS ANGELES, Chris Pine had some unexpected visitors at his California home recently.

According to a TMZ report, the ‘Hell or High Water’ star was at his home when police officers showed up at the residence after a bogus call was made over 911.

Interestingly, this was not the first time when Pine was “swatted” as the outlet revealed that it was in fact the fourth such instance.

Why did police come to Chris Pine's home?

The police reached over a call alleging a report of assault at the address which matched Chris Pine’s LA home. 

After discussing the call with Pine, the LAPD officers concluded that it was bogus and was intentionally placed to cause unnecessary trouble using the actor’s address. 

The authorities tried to reach out to the person who made the call, but he was uncooperative and disconnected the line without answering them properly. The law enforcement was able to determine that the caller lived outside California.

Now, authorities are trying to book the person for false police report and to establish if there is any connection between the caller and previous hoax reports linked to Pine’s address.

Cebrities falsely reported over 911

Just days ago, a 911 call was made to actress Jennifer Aniston’s address and police had to make a welfare check on her property.

After discussing with the security at her residence, the police determined that it was a false alarm. 

Other celebrities who have been victims of swatting include Justin Bieber, Rihanna, Tom Cruise, Clint Eastwood, among a few others. 

Pine is yet to make a statement over the recent incident of swatting.

The actor’s most recent flick was ‘Poolman’ in which he plays Darren Barrenman’s character.

According to the movie's synopsis, he is “an unwavering optimist and native Angeleno who spends his days looking after the pool of the Tahitian Tiki apartment block and fighting to make his hometown a better place to live.” Pine also directed and co-wrote the movie that stars Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Danny DeVito.
