Jennifer Aniston Targeted in Disturbing Swatting Incident


Jennifer Aniston experienced a disturbing incident on Friday evening when law enforcement responded to a swatting call at her home. This prank, which has become more common among celebrities, involves making false reports to prompt police action. According to TMZ, the call did not mention Aniston by name. The caller expressed concern for a friend who was "not doing well" and hinted at seeing him on the other side, asking the police for a welfare check at Aniston's address.

When authorities arrived shortly after midnight, they were met by the actress's security team, who were surprised by the police presence. Aniston spoke with the officers, assuring them that she was fine and had no intentions of self-harm. To prevent future disturbances, police have noted her address and plan to communicate with security first if another welfare check is requested.

This case is still under investigation as law enforcement treats it as a swatting incident. Aniston is not alone in facing such pranks; other celebrities like Chris Brown, Nicki Minaj, Rihanna, and Justin Bieber have also been targeted by similar hoax calls, which waste valuable police resources.
