Ephraim Hunter, previously convicted of violent crimes, broke into Mayor Bass's residence, triggering a major security response.

Ephraim Hunter, with a criminal history including a violent hammer attack, was arrested after breaking into LA Mayor Karen Bass's home.
The break-in occurred early Sunday morning; Hunter allegedly knew it was the mayor’s residence and targeted her specifically.
