Eminem Bravely Staves Off Home Intruder Who Snuck Past His Sleeping Security Detail!

Eminem confronts a home intruder who made it past his security team.

What a crazy close call for Eminem!!

Per TMZ, the 47-year-old rapper found himself in a troubling situation while quarantined when an intruder broke into his Detroit-area home earlier this month. Yep, even though there’s the wildly contagious coronavirus going around, it appears some deranged “fans” still want nothing more than to get uncomfortably close to their favorite celebrities.

The outlet writes that law enforcement arrested a 26-year-old man named Matthew David Hughes for trespassing on Em’s property, which is located within a gated community. The artist, born Marshall Mathers, reportedly came face-to-face with the guy right in his living room!!

Apparently, Hughes managed to slip right past Eminem’s security team, who happened to be sound asleep when the incident went down around 4 in the morning. According to the police report, the suspect used a paving stone to smash a kitchen window and climbed inside the house.

But what about security alarms?!

TMZ sources said an alarm did go off and while it did nothing to lift security from their slumber, it sure woke Eminem, who was also fast asleep in bed, too. Once the Grammy-winning artist discovered Hughes at his place, he immediately screamed for help — and that’s when the muscle finally arrived to get a hold of the man until officers arrived with backup.

Hughes was taken into custody and booked on two felony charges for a first-degree home invasion and the malicious destruction of a building. He is still being held on a $50K bond at the Macomb County Jail in Michigan.

Authorities who responded to the scene said it didn’t seem like the intruder was trying to steal anything, but it’s obvious he wanted some quality time with Slim Shady. We’ll go ahead and speak on behalf of all celebrities out there and remind you this is absolutely NOT the way to go about meeting your idol! We’re seriously glad this didn’t turn out any worse.

This report comes amid an otherwise positive time for the Rap God, who just celebrated a big personal milestone! April 20 marked the day Eminem officially became 12 years sober and we couldn’t be happier for him. Now, if the weirdos could just let this man quarantine in peace, please?!
