Page Six went ahead and spoke to a representative for the FBI PR office, who said “Members of the FBI‘s Ground Intercept task force are conducting activity in the area of the Palisades Fire relative to unauthorized drone activity. Agents and our local partners may be visible throughout the area, including at various residences, for this reason.”

Federal agents caused a stir in Ben Affleck‘s upscale Los Angeles neighborhood, but their presence had nothing to do with the actor. Instead, their visit was connected to a dangerous incident involving unauthorized drone activity during the ongoing wildfire crisis.

Ben Affleck recently bought a bachelor pad worth $20 million in the Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles amid his divorce from Jennifer Lopez. The home was at risk of burning due to the wildfires ravaging the area, and federal agents reportedly visited him to ask some questions.

Ben Affleck raised a few eyebrows when the FBI and the LA County Sheriff's Department were pictured outside his $20 million Brentwood home on Sunday, January 12. The authorities waited for several minutes before leaving the property after it became clear Ben wasn't home.

Ben Affleck was seen near his Brentwood home — which is near a mandatory evacuation zone for the Palisades Fire — speaking with police officers on Tuesday.
