Ben Affleck chats with security in upscale LA neighborhood after an intruder was on his property

Ben Affleck chat with a security patrol team in the luxe neighborhood of Pacific Palisades on Wednesday, following an incident involving an intruder earlier in the day.

The Argo star-director, 48, donned a black V-neck sweater and sported a beard as he chat with multiple guards parked in the upscale Los Angeles neighborhood, which is near the Pacific Ocean.

The Justice League drove a grey SUV while speaking with multiple guards, after authorities were called to his $20 million mansion after an intruder – masquerading as a guard – was seen climbing a gate that fences off Affleck’s property, Page Six reported earlier Wednesday.

It was not immediately clear if the Armageddon actor was at the residence when the intruder was spotted – clad in a black jacket that read ‘Security’ and trousers with blue trainers, wearing a ski mask.

The intruder was seen scaling the perimeter gate around 8 a.m., according to the report, and made their getaway on a bicycle before law enforcement arrived on scene.

A spokesperson for the Los Angeles Police Department told PageSix that officers completed a trespass investigative report, but no further action was taken since the suspect was no longer there.

Affleck purchased the home in the Pacific Palisades neighborhood following his divorce from Jennifer Garner, which was finalized in 2018.

It is close to the family home where Garner is raising their three children and the famous exes continue to amicably co-parent Violet, 15, Seraphina, 12, and Samuel, nine.

Affleck’s rekindled flame Jennifer Lopez was back at work in Miami on Wednesday after their trip to Montana. 

Over the weekend, the Argo Oscar winner and Lopez, 51, – who were dubbed ‘Bennifer’ when they were together in the early 2000s – jetted off to an exclusive ski resort in Montana to spend time together.

It comes amid reports that the Gigli co-stars, who called off their wedding in 2003, have rekindled their romance following the singer and actress’ split from former fiance Alex Rodriguez.

The couple arrived on a private jet and in pictures obtained by DailyMail.com, they appeared relaxed and at ease around one another.

It’s rumored that the pair have been in close touch since February although sources insist there was nothing untoward about their friendship before JLo decided to call it quits with A-Rod after four years together. 

In a statement confirming the breakup, Lopez and Rodriguez declared that they were ‘better off as friends’ and would ‘continue to work together and support each other on our shared businesses and projects.’
