While victims of the Los Angeles fires count their losses, an unidentified man reportedly took advantage of the situation to break into rapper Kid Cudi’s home.

The man, according to sources, was arrested on Wednesday after he had trespassed into Cudi’s residence, ate his food, used his restroom, and showered.

Amidst the wildfire evacuations, there have been reports of break-ins and looting, and this somewhat hilarious incident is the latest.

Reports indicate that the Los Angeles County Sheriff was prompted when the burglar was noticed on Cudi’s security cameras. The suspect is said to be held on $150,000 bail and booked for felony burglary and theft of utilities.

Kid Cudi recently told his Instagram followers that he was evacuating as the fires continued to spread.

“Hey guys, had to evacuate my crib…I’m safe; my loved ones and dogs are safe. For all the folk who lost their homes and people who are dealing with this, my heart hurts for you and I’m for praying us all…

“I send all my love to you and yours. If you have to evacuate, get out immediately. Don’t hesitate. Be safe, LA. Love you guys,” he wrote.

Early this month, Cudi revealed in an interview with Zane Lowe on Apple Music that he has reconciled with Kanye West after a tumultuous relationship over the years.

Kanye signed Cudi to his G.O.O.D. Music label in 2008 and helped him launch his career with hits like Day ‘n’ Nite and Pursuit of Happiness.

However, their relationship reportedly soured in 2016, when Cudi called out Kanye and other rappers on Twitter for being fake and not supporting him. Kanye responded by ranting on stage and dissing Cudi, calling him “disrespectful” and “ungrateful.”.
