Actor Michael Madson has been arrested for breaking into a luxury house from which he was recently evicted, reports DailyMail.com exclusively.
The star of Reservoir Dogs took place on Wednesday night at a mansion in Malibu for $ 5.3 million just across the Pacific Coast Highway from La Costa Beach, where he lived until February 17.
A source told DailyMail.com exclusively: “Michael has been living in the house since last year, but the rent was different.”
The house was rented by another person and owed several thousand dollars back rent, learned DailyMail.com.
For the past two years, the landlord has been trying to get tenants evicted, but a moratorium on evictions over Covid has taken several months to sue.
In custody: 64-year-old actor Michael Madson was arrested on Wednesday night at his former home in Malibu for breaking in shortly after 9pm Pacific time, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Office
The homeowner was trying to get Madson and others evicted by 2020, but the Covid moratorium prevented him until recently.
“The person who rented the house was taken to court and all parties were expelled, including Madson on February 17,” the source added.
Last Wednesday around 8:30 pm, the owner received a phone call from the security company of his rented house, which said that someone was trying to break into the house.
The owner, who lives a few miles from the house, arrived and found Madson, 64, on the front porch.
The owner quickly called 911 and the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Deputy came out and arrested the disheveled-looking Madson for violation.
Dressed in baggy jeans, a denim jacket and a partially unbuttoned Hawaiian shirt, the Kill Bill star was taken first to a West Hills hospital and then to the police station.
According to the booking documents, he received a $ 500 quote for a crime and was released shortly before 7 a.m. Thursday.
After his arrest, Madson, who has been married three times, and the property owner have reached an agreement that will allow him to get his belongings back.
Madson was evicted from his home in Malibu for $ 10,500 a month on February 17, but was arrested there six days later.
The house with 4 beds and 4 bathrooms, opposite La Costa beach in Malibu, is now valued at about $ 5.3 million
The 3,400-square-foot house with 4 beds and 4 bathrooms has not been sold for more than 30 years. It was built in 1974 and bought for $ 725,000 in 1991. The Redfin real estate website estimates it now costs about $ 5.3 million.
When it was last offered for rent for $ 10,500 a month, it was touted as “your chance to live the real way of life in Malibu !!!”
Real estate agents added: “A great open floor plan includes a high-ceilinged living room, dining room and kitchen. Beautiful ocean views from the living room, master bedroom, attic and rooftop front decks. ‘
Madson had a terrible start in 2022. His arrest came just a month after his son, a U.S. Army sergeant. Hudson Madson shot himself on the Hawaiian island of Oahu, where he was stationed in the 25th Infantry Division. Hudson was an Afghan military veterinarian.
Hudson’s death came a week after his wife, Carly, underwent surgery to remove a breast tumor.
I am shocked because my son, with whom I spoke a few days ago, said he was happy – my last text was “I love you, Dad”, he told Los Angeles Times.
“I did not see any signs of depression. It is so tragic and sad. I’m just trying to make sense of everything and find out what happened.
Madson said his son’s marriage was “going strong” and he had recently completed his first US Army tour.

Hudson Madson shot himself a week after his wife, Carly, removed a tumor from her breast. She called him “so patient throughout this process.”
On screen: A frequent contributor to Quentin Tarantino, Madson has starred in films including Reservoir Dogs since 1993 (left) and Kill Bill since 2003 (right).
“He had the typical life challenges that people face with finances, but he wanted a family. He was looking to his future, so it was mind-boggling. I just can’t figure out what happened.
Madson has called for a full military investigation into his son’s death. The actor believes that “officers and ranks were ashamed” Hudson that he wants therapy. He believes this has stopped him from seeking help for mental health problems he has kept to himself.
This recent arrest was not Madson’s first encounter with the law, in 2019 the actor was removed from the role of $ 100,000 in the film “Confessions of a Serial Killer” after crashing his Land Rover into a pole and subsequently arrested for DUI. He was later sentenced to four days in prison.
In 2012, he was also arrested for DUI after driving unevenly, but entered into a plea deal that included attending AA meetings instead of a heavier sentence.
However, after Madson did not attend the Alcoholics Anonymous hearings, his probation was lifted.
