Trey Mendel, 27, has been arrested following an alleged burglary at Kim Kardashian’s Hidden Hills estate. Authorities reported that the suspect entered the property through a side door while the residence was undergoing renovations. Mendel allegedly stole a 2017 Lexus GX 470 belonging to a staff member and used the vehicle to drive through the neighborhood before being apprehended by deputies.

While initial reports indicated a successful entry, Kardashian has disputed parts of the police narrative, stating that the individual ‘did not gain entry’ and that her belongings were not in the residence at the time. It has since been confirmed that Kardashian and her four children were not residing at the estate during the incident, as the family is temporarily staying in a nearby luxury rental while renovations continue on the $60 million property.

Mendel faces second-degree theft charges. Following suggestions from his public defender regarding his mental health, a judge has ordered a psychiatric evaluation. Bail has been set at $75,000, and Mendel is expected to return to court later this month.
