Police raided Justin Bieber’s Calabasas, Calif., mansion today in a search for … eggs? Well, they were looking for evidence to link Bieber to an egg-throwing incident that a neighbor claims caused $20,000 in damage to his home.
A news helicopter showed at least six police cars parked in front of Bieber’s home.

Music producer Maejor Ali, who has collaborated with Bieber, found the incident ridiculous.

We doubt that guns were drawn, but we weren’t there.

The search did turn up something. Police arrested Bieber’s friend, rapper Lil Za, for possession of cocaine, which was reported to be in plain sight.
