Teddi Mellencamp and Edwin Arroyave’s home was targeted by attempted burglars, Page Six can confirm.
“Thankfully, their security system worked, the police got there quickly and the perpetrators ran away,” an insider told us Tuesday.
The estranged couple went on to tell us in a joint statement, “We are grateful that everyone is unharmed. While we are shaken, we are fortunate to have the latest in home security systems, which scared off the intruders.
“Authorities were alerted and swiftly responded. We appreciate everyone’s heightened concern in light of recent criminal activities in our area, but we are safe.”
Arroyave, the founder and CEO of Skyline Security, also posted security footage showing three masked men jumping over their front gate late Monday night.
“The idea for Skyline Security came from the trauma of having a gun held to my head at 18,” he told his followers in part. “The ability to save lives and protect families is the genesis of what I do.”
Burglars attempted to enter the premises and access Arroyave and Mellencamp’s Los Angeles residence while they were home, TMZ was first to report.
However, the home’s security system immediately signaled that intruders were present. The pair then quickly alerted authorities.

Though officers responded immediately, the suspects still managed to flee the property.
Law enforcement sources told TMZ that the suspects had burglarized Mellencamp and Arroyave’s neighbors’ house just before.
The “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” alum, 44, is currently battling stage 4 cancer after her skin cancer metastasized to her brain.
In November 2024, she filed for divorce from Arroyave, with whom she shares three children: daughter Slate, 12, son Cruz, 10, and daughter Dove, 5.
Arroyave, 48, is also dad to a teenage daughter named Isabella.
At the time, Page Six reported that Mellencamp’s affair with her then-married horse trainer led to the split.
Despite their separation, a supportive Arroyave has remained by Mellencamp’s side throughout her treatment.
While she has dated at least one person since filing for divorce, the current status of Arroyave’s love life is unclear.
