Keanu Reeves has suffered another home invasion; but this time, it was not a visit from an obsessed stalker.

Multiple masked men recently dared to test their luck against the "John Wick" star by breaking into his Los Angeles residence while he was not home.

It is a good thing no dogs were reported to be harmed in the home invasion.

Burglars Responsible For Invading Keanu Reeves' Home Are Still On The Loose

The near life-imitating-art moment began on the evening of Wednesday, December 6, when authorities received an anonymous 911 call around 7 pm about a possible trespasser on Reeves' L.A. property.

Luckily, they did not walk into an iconic “John Wick” moment with Reeves ready to wage war on the burglars. No, it wasn't anything that dramatic.

The coast was clear, and after conducting a search and coming up empty, the responding officers left the scene. Shockingly, they were alerted a few hours later to trouble in Reeve's residence by a security alarm. They got to the scene at 1 AM, but they were too late.

Sources told TMZ the culprits had fled by the time law enforcers arrived, but they were captured on security cameras smashing a window to access Reeves' house.

The burglars, multiple men in ski masks, reportedly stole a firearm from the property before making their escape, but it remains unclear if these men took anything else.

The search for the conniving housebreakers continues with authorities combing thorough surveillance footage from Reeves's home and those found in his neighborhood for more clues.  Additionally, insiders noted that the LAPD suspected the first call they received and are investigating whether it was made by someone surveying the property.

Authorities have plenty of reason to think someone might have been scoping the actor's home, given the unwarranted attention his residence received in the past. In 2014, the Canadian native nearly became the victim of a terrible event when a woman broke into his house while he was asleep.

Like the present burglars, the woman did not cause any harm but made herself comfortable in the actor's library chair. The "Matrix" star reportedly got up to find a woman, who was in her mid-40s, silently sitting in his chair. Luckily, Reeves opted to resolve the matter without violence.

Authorities took the female trespasser into custody, and she was later taken for a psych evaluation. Despite having a residence that looked like a fortress, the culprit easily accessed Reeves's home because he forgot to set his security alarms.

Keanu Reeves Previously Battled A Stalker Claiming To Be His Relative

In another home invasion, Reeves was forced to acquire a restraining order against an obsessed stalker. In February, the 59-year-old filed for protection against a man who wanted to prove he was related to him.

Before running to the law, the Hollywood veteran had hired a security firm to investigate the trespasser after he kept appearing on his security cameras. Although the man was repeatedly escorted off the property, the offender kept breaking in.

The drama began in November 2022 and continued through January 2023 until Reeves filed the restraining order petition, fearing for his and Alexandra Grant's safety. According to the court document, the invader raised alarm bells when he allegedly left a backpack containing a DNA testing kit.

Reeves' attorney claimed the trespasser intended to use the DNA testing kit on his client "in a delusional attempt to prove they are blood-related." The legal rep then stressed that the man was unrelated to the entertainer despite calling himself Jasper Keith Reeves on social media.
