Rapper/actor LL Cool J played a real-life agent when his home was broken into on Tuesday evening, Aug. 21.
The "NCIS: Los Angeles" star apprehended an intruder after he heard commotion in the lower-level of his house in Studio City, Calif., according to several reports.
The robber's attempts were foiled when he tripped the alarm system after he entered the Los Angeles area home, according to TMZ. When the 44-year-old actor and Queens native discovered him, he held the intruder and roughed him up until police arrived.

When officers arrived, they arrested the would-be-robber for suspicion of burglary. Police revealed that the suspect had minor bruises and he has yet to be identified. Authorities also shared that the rapper-turned-actor was not hurt and nothing was stolen.
