Actor Terrence J shot at in Los Angeles

Actor, model, and entertainment reporter Terrence J escaped an attempted home invasion on Wednesday morning just after 3 a.m.

The real-life drama was set on the streets of Sherman Oaks, a neighborhood in the San Fernando Valley region of Los Angeles, California.

According to police, Terrence J and a passenger were returning from Hollywood when they pulled into the driveway of a Sherman Oaks home where they were suddenly blocked by an SUV.

Four male suspects riding in a silver Jeep Cherokee followed the victim to his house, pulled up behind him, and tried to rob him at gunpoint. At least one of the suspects was carrying a gun.

Terrence J and the passenger managed to drive away followed by the four-man who opened fire at Terrence's car.

At one point, Terrence managed to spot a highway patrol officer in California. and the suspects took off.

Authorities are still looking for the four suspects involved in the attempted armed robbery in Sherman Oaks.

Just two days before the incident, the Los Angeles police department issued a warning. They released a community alert that warned residents about “an increase in violent street robberies.”

Basically, they're telling people in the area to be aware of their surroundings.

Especially when leaving nightclubs and restaurants.

It seems that suspects are targeting individuals who either have expensive jewelry, expensive cars, and things of that nature.

The LAPD is pretty much saying that this has been a trend in the area.
