Story summary

On Friday night, an alleged trespasser entered the property of former Vice President Kamala Harris in Malibu, California. Security personnel at the residence stopped the individual before they reached the house itself; Harris and her husband Doug Emhoff were not present at the time. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department responded to a suspicious person call around 10:30 p.m and warned the trespasser to leave voluntarily, with no arrests made. Law enforcement has increased patrols in the area as a precautionary measure following this incident, which reignites discussions about Harris' security after President Trump ended her extended Secret Service protection last year.
