Intruder Detained at Nicki Minaj’s Property
A 36-year-old man named Leland Adams was arrested on Wednesday, April 1, 2026, after attempting to trespass at Nicki Minaj’s mansion in Calabasas, California. According to reports, Adams arrived at the property in the morning and refused to leave when confronted by the security team. Security officers successfully detained the individual until local deputies arrived to take him into custody. Authorities confirmed that Adams never gained entry into the residence.
Details of the Incident
TMZ reported that neither Nicki Minaj nor her husband, Kenneth Petty, were present at the home during the attempted intrusion. The suspect was described as a white male with long hair and a red beard, wearing a gray tracksuit. He remained in police custody following the incident.
Recent Legal Context
This security scare follows a period of legal activity for the rapper, who recently avoided the forced sale of her $20 million Hidden Hills home. In January 2026, Minaj successfully paid a $503,000 default judgment related to a 2019 lawsuit involving her husband and a former security guard, effectively stopping the legal proceedings against her property.
