Celebrities with names starting in "Vi" and dogs are not mixing well this year.
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Dogs apparently belonging to "Mission Impossible" star Ving Rhames attacked and killed a caretaker at the actor's Los Angeles home on Friday, police said.
The caretaker, whose name was not immediately released, was found dead on lawn of Rhames' home in the exclusive Brentwood neighborhood, Los Angeles police spokeswoman Sandra Gonzalez said.
"This morning at 7:15 a.m. We got a call of a dead body," Gonzalez said. "We found the body of a male, approximately 40 years old, on the front lawn, who had been mauled by dogs."
Gonzalez said there was no one else around when officers arrived and that four dogs, identified as mastiffs, were taken into custody by animal control officers.
She said Rhames, who starred alongside Tom Cruise in all three "Mission Impossible" movies and appeared in the 1994 Quentin Tarantino film "Pulp Fiction," was not home when officers arrived.
Gonzalez said an investigation was under way and that no further details were immediately available.
