A man was arrested on Friday night at the residence of LeBron James, located in Brentwood, California, and was subsequently booked on charges of harassment. The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) confirmed the incident to ESPN after several officers responded to the Philadelphia 76ers player's property to investigate a possible break-in.

According to a police spokesperson, the emergency call was received at 9:39 PM on Friday. Officers arrived at James's home and located a suspect there, who was arrested and taken into custody.

The Police intervened while James was in Cleveland

The incident occurred while LeBron James was away from his residence. On Friday night, the player was in Cleveland for the matchup against the Cavaliers, his former team, with the Sixers.

Philadelphia ended up losing 119-95 in a visit that had already been particularly challenging for James from a sporting perspective. The forward had a modest performance in his return to Cleveland, finishing the game with eight points.

A representative of the player declined to comment on the incident at his home. For now, the information confirmed by the LAPD is limited to the arrest of the suspect and the harassment charges for which he was booked.
