A Year in Jail Plus Probation for Man Breaking into Taye Diggs' Studio City Home

A Hollywood man who pleaded guilty to breaking into actor Taye Diggs Fryman Canyon home in Studio City recieved one year in jail and three yeas of probabtion on Monday afternoon.

Diggs was returning home from the Screen Actors Guild Awards on Jan. 27 when he and his wife Idina Menzel came across a burglar at their home in the 3100 block of Oakdell Lane at about 11:10 p.m.

The Private Practice TV star chased the suspect and contained him until police came.

Hassan Omar Juma, 20, was in Van Nuys Superior Court on Monday afternoon where he pleaded guilty to one felony count of first-degree burglary with a person present. That reversed a "not guilty" plea he entered on Jan. 29.

The judge also ordered that Juma "stay away" from the actor, according to the District Attorney's Office. This was not something that the prosecutors negotiated.

The actor told police that he "found the guy inside his garage looking for things to take," and that he chased Juma after he ran off and held him for police, according to Richard French of the Los Angeles Police Department.

Not far away last August, the Studio City home of LL Cool J was broken into and the rapper/star tackled and detained a suspect. Also last year, a stalker was found outside the home of Miley Cyrusin Studio City.
