A home belonging to former Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson was the scene of a violent home invasion, with TMZ Sports reporting at least one person was pistol-whipped.
Jackson’s publicist Denise White confirmed the report, noting Jackson wasn’t at the Los Angeles home when as many as five armed individuals stormed the house, and were fought off by about six people inside.
“He had no knowledge of the incident until a phone call last evening. It's a legal matter,” White said. “We're waiting for police to let us know more about the incident."
Investigators told TMZ they believe the incident was gang related, and that the intruders has been in the home before.
