LAPD reportedly arrests suspect in connection to Magic Johnson's daughter Elisa's home invasion
A suspect in the home robbery involving Magic Johnson’s daughter Elisa has been apprehended. He is reportedly a parolee who is now in custody without bail.
One of the men suspected to be involved in the home invasion which Magic Johnson’s daughter Elisa Johnson fled from was arrested.
The man whose name was not identified is now in police custody without bail. According to reports, he was tracked down through a surveillance video of the area where the invasion occurred.
Elisa and her friends were in a rented home in December when two men broke in. While her friends were held at gunpoint, Elisa was in her bedroom, unaware of what was going on. Upon learning of the break-in, she managed to escape from the back door of the house and secure help from neighbors who called 911. Meanwhile, the suspects stole a Rolex watch, some cash, and electronics before fleeing the scene. No one was harmed from the encounter.
Through the help of surveillance footage, two men were spotted lurking around the area of the robbery a few hours before. This led to an investigation that resulted in one of the men’s arrest.
Sources for TMZ revealed the suspect in custody is 25 years old with an extensive record. In fact, he was at his parole office at the time he was apprehended. He currently faces multiple charges of robbery while his accomplice has yet to be found.
Elisa is the eldest daughter of Magic and his wife Cookie. After the incident, she posted a message on her Instagram stories to proclaim that “God is good.” A few weeks later, she celebrated her birthday, and her father made sure to greet his daughter on her special day. Magic shared photos of the two of them from then and now and wished her more blessings.
