Similar incident of home invasion at Tina Knowles residence

This isn’t the first time Knowles' residence in LA has had an unexpected guest. Earlier in April, a man was detained for causing a disturbance and damaging her property after he was observed hurling pebbles at her mailbox while standing in front of her home.

The suspect attempted to flee as police, including a helicopter, arrived on the scene. The helicopter tracked him down, and after a brief foot chase, he was apprehended. The defendant was put on a 5150 mental hold after being accused of acting abnormally. Despite the slight damage to her mailbox, Knowles chose not to report the incident to the police or even file a charge.
