Police Probe Pizza Ruse in Attempted Break-In at Christian Wood’s Sherman Oaks Rental

Police attribute the attempt to a fake pizza order, with the number used yielding no leads.

Overview

  • Investigators say a Domino’s driver arrived around 12:30 p.m. on November 5 and left when Christian Wood, who was home and not expecting a delivery, did not answer the door.
  • Shortly after the driver departed, three masked intruders allegedly smashed a rear sliding glass door to enter the short-term rental.
  • Wood retrieved a firearm and fired multiple shots, prompting the suspects to flee without taking property or injuring anyone, according to law enforcement records.
  • Weeks later, police obtained a search warrant focused on the Domino’s order and learned the same number called to check if the pizza had been delivered, but a trace returned no usable information.
  • Us Weekly reports Wood told LAPD the firearm he used was an unregistered ghost gun with a high-capacity magazine that he said he found at the rental, and authorities are now examining its origin.
