Drunken Neighbor On Tom Cruise's Property Tased & Arrested
Oct. 28 2012, Published 1:00 p.m. ET
Accidentally stumbling onto Tom Cruise's property turned out to be risky business for one of the actor's neighbors late Sunday, as police said one of the star's security guards used a stun gun on the man before he was arrested in connection with trespassing.
The Beverly Hills Police Department said the incident occurred at Cruise's Beverly Hills estate at 9:30 p.m. PT after the guard said he witnessed a man "climbing a fence to gain access to the property."
The man lived next door and had walked there -- likely by mistake -- in an intoxicated stupor, authorities said, adding they took the 41-year-old to the hospital for a post-stun gun check-up after they booked him.
Neither Cruise nor members of his family were home at the time of the confrontation, officials said.
