Man charged in hollywood burglary gang case

A suspect linked to the Hollywood burglary gang which allegedly targeted the homes of Lindsay Lohan, Rachel Bilson and Orlando Bloom has been charged with guns and drugs possession.

Five teens, three of them female, have been charged with residential burglary after being arrested in connection to the raids on the homes of several young Hollywood stars.

Designer clothing, jewellery and cash was taken from properties belonging to Lohan, Bloom and Bilson, as well as Audrina Patridge and Ashley Tisdale.

Now, Jonathan Ajar has been charged after police searched his home in connection to the burglaries.

Police confirm the 27 year old handed himself in, but was not charged with residential burglary - instead he was charged with possessing a firearm and drugs at his Los Angeles property.

A spokesperson for the Los Angeles District Attorney's office says, "We didn't file any charges against him related to the actual burglary.

"We charged him with multiple counts of possession, for sale of a controlled substance and possession of a firearm."
