Pitt files charges against E! channel

Reps for Brad Pitt have confirmed he is filing trespassing charges against an E! channel crew after they were seen filming on the Babel actor's Hollywood Hills estate last week (first reported here). "Yes, we have filed trespassing charges against E! and are exploring our legal options against both the crew that actually trespassed and the network itself," the actor's rep told People. A spokesperson for the LAPD says the incident is still under investigation, but the E! network denies any wrongdoing, issuing a statement reading, "E! Networks is investigating allegations that a producer and cameraman who were filming locations for a program about Brad Pitt went onto property last week that is reportedly owned by Mr. Pitt. E! Networks did not instruct or authorize anyone working on its program to improperly intrude onto private property, and the individuals involved have been terminated. While neither Mr. Pitt nor his family were at the property when the incident took place, the network in no way condones or encourages such behavior and would like to offer its most sincere apologies to Mr. Pitt and his family."
