Shots fired outside Pitt, Jolie home

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have stepped up security around their California home after gunshots were fired nearby.

The couple's bodyguards are believed to be on "high alert" after a security truck parked outside the property in Los Feliz was hit by gunfire from a passing car at around 4am on November 27. A Range Rover used by a local resident was also struck.

One bodyguard told Life & Style magazine: "I'm doing fine, but I don't want to talk about this."

Pitt's spokesperson denied that the couple and their four children were the intended targets of the shots. However, a neighbour said: "You can tell their security guys are on high alert right now."
