A person was stabbed outside a Hollywood Hills home linked to U2 frontman Bono on Thursday, according to a report.
Police responded to the sprawling property around 1:20 p.m. after receiving a call about a possible stabbing victim on the 7800 block of Granito Drive — right near a property Irish-born singer Bono had recently invested in, TMZ reported.
The victim was taken to a local hospital in stable condition, according to the Los Angeles Police Department.
The suspect was arrested for assault with a deadly weapon, the LAPD said.
An aerial shot showed police cars waiting outside the ritzy home, complete with a backyard pool.
Bono, whose legal name is Paul Hewson, owns at least two other homes in Dublin and Killiney, Ireland. He was rumored to have invested in a $7 million avant-garde mansion just above the Sunset Strip in 2024, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The Sunset Strip and Hollywood Hills are often clumped into one neighborhood for their close proximity and similar wealth.
The Hollywood Hills property supposedly linked to Bono is currently under construction. The multi-Grammy award winner was out of the country when the alleged stabbing took place, TMZ reported.
Sources told the outlet that Bono is just one of several investors involved in the project and that they plan to put it on the market, though it’s not currently listed publicly.
Bono, 65, has been enjoying a cushy retirement, swimming in his sum-odd $700 million net worth and finding fresh passion projects outside of music.
While the star typically keeps a low profile, he occasionally pops back up to provide his two cents on anything from the debate over Coldplay’s genre to American politics.
Bono enjoyed greater prominence under the Biden Administration as he was invited to events like the State of the Union for his tireless work combating HIV/AIDS and poverty. He was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by Biden shortly before he left office.
