LeBron James offered a brief update Sunday after a man was arrested on suspicion of stalking at his Los Angeles property.

“My family is safe,” the Sixers star told reporters, calling that “the most important” thing, via Chris Cwik of Yahoo Sports.

James said he was still “looking into everything” and did not discuss the incident in detail.

The arrest occurred Friday at James’ Brentwood home, while he was in Cleveland for the Sixers’ game against the Cavaliers.

According to the police account cited by Yahoo Sports, officers responded to a possible burglary report and found a man on the property. He was arrested without incident on suspicion of felony stalking.

Police said the man was unarmed and did not enter the residence. No one was home at the time.

James remained with the Sixers for the next stop on their road trip, scoring 22 points in Sunday’s win over the Bulls in Chicago.

His comments afterward focused on his family’s well-being. Beyond confirming they were safe, James offered no further details as he continued gathering information about what happened.
