William Daniels and his 89-year-old wife, Bonnie Bartlett, were in their San Fernando Valley home on Saturday night. The Los Angeles Police Department tells KABC-TV an intruder forced open a back door and Daniels turned on the lights.
In a statement on Twitter, his publicist wrote , “Luckily, Mr. Daniels was able to frighten away the person and the LAPD quickly responded.” Daniels and his wife “are both well.”
Police have not made an arrest.
