Charlize Theron’s BMW was stolen from her Los Angeles property after a thief entered through an open gate and discovered the car with its key fob left inside.

According to LAPD sources, the suspect drove away without resistance. The incident was first reported by NBC4 News. Authorities confirmed that the stolen vehicle was later recovered, though no arrests have been made.

Theron, known for her role in The Italian Job, was not harmed during the theft, and there is no indication that she or her family were confronted.

The theft has drawn attention in the neighbourhood, where residents have expressed concern following a series of recent robberies. Locals noted that the ease of the incident raised questions about personal security practices, particularly leaving vehicles unlocked with keys inside.

On social media, the case sparked discussion among fans and observers, many pointing out the irony of Theron’s past roles involving heists and car chases.

Others highlighted that even celebrities are not immune to straightforward crimes when basic precautions are overlooked.

The LAPD reported that the BMW’s recovery minimised financial loss but emphasised the importance of securing property.

Officers reiterated common safety measures, such as locking gates and avoiding leaving key fobs inside vehicles, to prevent similar incidents.

Theron has not issued a public statement regarding the theft. However, the event has reignited debate over safety in high-profile Los Angeles neighbourhoods, where luxury cars and visible wealth can make residents frequent targets.
