They Kept Sneaking into His Pool… Until Keanu Reeves Made Sure They Regretted It!

Keanu Reeves, Hollywood’s beloved “John Wick” star, is known for his kindness, humility, and down-to-earth demeanor. However, even the famously affable actor has his limits. In 2014, Reeves’ Hollywood Hills home became an unexpected magnet for trespassers, with two women sneaking onto his property within days of each other, one even taking a dip in his pool. These bizarre incidents pushed Reeves to take decisive action, ensuring the intruders faced consequences they wouldn’t soon forget. Here’s the story of how Keanu Reeves turned the tables on those who crossed his boundaries, blending his trademark calm with a firm stand for his privacy.

The First Intruder: A Chilling Library Encounter

The saga began on September 12, 2014, when Reeves, then 50, awoke around 4 a.m. to strange noises coming from the library of his $5.6 million Hollywood Hills estate. Most people might panic, but Reeves, true to his cool-headed nature, calmly investigated. To his shock, he found a woman in her mid-40s sitting in his library chair, acting as if she belonged there. According to TMZ, she claimed she was there to “meet him,” a delusional assertion that hinted at deeper issues.

Rather than confront her aggressively, Reeves engaged her in conversation, keeping the situation under control while discreetly calling 911. When police arrived, they detained the woman, described as “erratic,” and transported her to a medical facility for a psychiatric evaluation. No items were stolen, and Reeves was unharmed, but the incident was unsettling, especially coming just months after his Speed co-star Sandra Bullock faced a similar home invasion. The LAPD filed a trespassing report, and it seemed like a one-off scare—until just three days later, when another intruder struck.

The Pool Trespasser: A Naked Swim and a Shower

On September 15, 2014, while Reeves was away, a second woman, later identified as 50-year-old Kerry Colen Raus, slipped into his home through a door left unlocked by a cleaning crew during ongoing construction. This intruder took her trespassing to another level, making herself at home in a way that was both bizarre and brazen. According to reports, she stripped naked, took a shower in Reeves’ bathroom, and then went skinny-dipping in his modernist hillside lap pool, described by Lonny as a sleek, narrow feature of his property.

The cleaning crew, noticing her presence only after she began swimming, alerted authorities. When police arrived around 10:30 a.m., they found Raus behaving erratically. Like the first intruder, she was detained and taken for a mental evaluation, with no arrest made at the time. The incident, first reported by TMZ, sent shockwaves through the media, with outlets like the Daily Mail and CNN noting the audacity of the back-to-back invasions. For Reeves, who had just returned from filming The Whole Truth in New Orleans, the violation of his private sanctuary was a wake-up call.

Keanu’s Response: Restraining Order and Upgraded Security

While Reeves handled the first incident with his characteristic composure, the second trespasser’s actions—using his shower and pool—crossed a line that demanded stronger measures. On October 2, 2014, Reeves, through his attorney, filed for a temporary restraining order (TRO) against Raus in Los Angeles Superior Court. Court documents revealed his concern for his safety, stating that her “delusional belief that I invited her onto my property presents a reasonable threat that she will attempt further trespass into my home or otherwise cause injury to me.” The TRO required Raus to stay at least 100 yards away from Reeves, with a hearing scheduled for October 22 to consider extending the order for five years due to her “harassing, unprivileged and threatening stalking conduct.”

Raus had been placed on a 5150 psychiatric hold after her arrest, indicating serious mental health concerns, but Reeves wasn’t taking chances. He also upgraded his home security system, a move he later confirmed in response to these incidents. The Los Angeles Times noted that the construction work at his property, which had left gates and doors accessible, likely contributed to the breaches, prompting Reeves to tighten access points. These actions sent a clear message: while he was empathetic to the intruders’ apparent mental health struggles, he would not tolerate further violations of his space.

A History of Intrusions and Keanu’s Resilience

The 2014 incidents weren’t isolated. Reeves’ home has faced multiple breaches over the years, highlighting the challenges of fame. In 1990, two fans climbed a fence to knock on his door, and instead of calling the police, Reeves famously shared a beer with them, a story later shared on Facebook by one of the trespassers, Chris Johnston. Fast forward to 2022-2023, when 38-year-old Bryan Keith Dixon allegedly trespassed six times, claiming to be Reeves’ relative and even bringing a DNA testing kit. Reeves and his partner, Alexandra Grant, secured another TRO against Dixon, supported by security footage showing him lurking on the property.

Most recently, in December 2023, masked burglars broke into Reeves’ home, stealing a firearm, though he was not present. The LAPD is investigating whether an earlier anonymous call about a trespasser was a scouting attempt to test police response times. Through it all, Reeves has maintained his reputation as a compassionate figure, often handling incidents with grace—like calmly calling 911 in 2014 or signing a fan’s “You’re Breathtaking” banner in 2019—but he’s also shown he’s not afraid to take legal action when necessary.

Why the Pool Incident Stands Out

The pool trespassing by Raus remains one of the most sensational chapters in Reeves’ history of home invasions. Her actions—
