Dylan Sprouse confronted trespasser at home, held him at gunpoint, report says
Published in Entertainment News
Disney Channel alum Dylan Sprouse reportedly held a trespasser at gunpoint outside his Los Angeles home early Friday and tackled the man before authorities arrived at the scene.
Sprouse’s wife, supermodel Barbara Palvin, called the cops at around 12:30 a.m. local time to report an attempted burglary, law enforcement sources told TMZ. The man, whose name and age are not yet known, was arrested for warrants, with authorities believing him to be a trespasser.
The “Suite Life of Zack and Cody” star, 33, and 32-year-old Palvin, who have had brushes with similar attempts in the past, reportedly didn’t want the man just taken in for trespassing.
Sprouse — who sources say is fine but “very shaken up” — was armed during the altercation, TMZ reports.
The former child actor spoke to the Daily News in 2017 about All-Wise Meadery, the brewery he was preparing to open in Williamsburg, though it’s since closed.
In 2020, he deadpanned to the Daily News that he’s “much more of a depressing, terrible human being” than his comedic chops would suggest. He also at the time said he found major leading roles to largely be “f--king boring” and “too conceited,” and was “not (acting) ... for clout anymore.”
