Gerard Butler becomes victim of real-life crime

Actor Gerard Butler became the victim of a real-life crime as his $11,000 (Dhs40,405) airstream trailer was stolen from a parking lot ahead of a planned restoration project.

It was stolen in California earlier this week. According to TMZ, law enforcement said that the aluminium motor home was taken from the parking lot at a fabrication shop in the San Fernando Valley.

A source told the site that the Scottish-born actor brought the mobile home out of state and that it was essentially a shell which he was having restored.

The star has endured a few stressful months after he was one of the celebrities whose homes was affected by the ires which spread rapidly across California.
