Sheriff raids Justin Bieber's home after egg- throwing incident

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - A search of teen pop star Justin Bieber's home was conducted on Tuesday on suspicion of felony vandalism after the "Boyfriend" singer was accused
of pelting his neighbor's home with eggs, a Los Angeles County Sheriff's spokesman said.

"We are in the process of executing a search warrant on Justin Bieber's home," spokesman Steve Whitmore said, adding that Bieber and others at his Calabasas, California, home, about 30 miles northwest of Los Angeles were detained during the search.

Bieber, 19, is also being questioned by sheriff's deputies about the January 9 incident in the upscale gated community, in which he is alleged to have thrown eggs
against his neighbor's home, Whitmore said.

The vandalism case is being treated as a felony because it caused "thousands and thousands of dollars of damage" to the house, Whitmore said.

It is not known what triggered the alleged incident between Bieber and his neighbor, but the Canada-born pop star has had several publicized run-ins with his neighbors.

Last year, Bieber was accused of speeding through the neighborhood in a Ferrari sports car and also spitting on his neighbor during a confrontation over parties at the singer's home.

Prosecutors did not bring charges against Bieber in either case.
