Taye Diggs Chases Down Home Invader

title or description

A quick note to any salesmen hoping to unload a home security system on Private Practice star Taye Diggs: He doesn't need one.

Last night, after returning to his Los Angeles home from the Screen Actors Guild Awards with his wife Idina Menzel at 11:20 p.m., Diggs discovered a burglar in his garage. The intruder – first reported on by TMZ and later identified as Hassan Juma, 20 – attempted to flee, but didn't get very far.

"The suspect tried to run away, but [Diggs] chased him down the street and was able to detain him until police arrived," LAPD spokesman Richard French tells PEOPLE. "At this time, I don't know exactly what he did to the suspect to detain him."

Juma was arrested, charged with burglary and is currently in custody. Bail has been set at $50,000.

Diggs's crime-fighting exploits capped off a busy evening for the actor. Earlier in the night, he and Cougar Town actress Busy Philipps handed out the SAG Award for outstanding performance by a female actor in a drama series to Claire Danes for her role in Homeland.

At the after-party following the awards ceremony, Diggs, 42, and wife Menzel ripped it up on the dance floor to the beats of DJ Pesce.

What has he said?
nene718 29th-Jan-2013 06:32 am (UTC)
he said private practice failed because black women didn't watch it since they were mad at him marrying a white woman or something like that

Wowwwwww....smh. I'm pretty sure you need more than the Black female demographic to not get your show cancelled.

He blamed black women for his show being cancelled. He said that black women refuse to support him because he was with a white woman on and off screen. He said that black women support Will and Denzel but not him because of his associations with white women.
He also came to the defense of rapper Slim Thug who said he preferred to date white women because they were easier to control and didnt talk back. Taye said that people only focused on his words (um yah...) and that his preferences weren't our business and that black women were constantly rude to him and his wife on the streets.
He alwaysss has to bring up the fact that his career sucks and ties it back to jealous black women. YAWN.
