Ben Affleck takes his son and dog out for a walk after police and FBI visit his neighborhood amid LA fires

Ben Affleck went for a walk with his 12-year-old son, Samuel, and their dog in their Brentwood neighborhood in Los Angeles on Saturday, as wildfires continue to devastate the area.

The “Good Will Hunting” actor appeared annoyed at the sight of photographers after a difficult week in the area, which included a visit from the Federal Bureau of Investigation and local law enforcement.

Affleck, 52, wore black pants, a navy and beige cardigan and a beige bomber jacket for the casual stroll. Samuel, on the other hand, comfortably wore plaid pajama pants and a plain gray hoodie.

The father-son duo was accompanied by Trident Elite Protection Dogs, which TMZ reports is an organization that focuses on the safety and security of families and individuals.

Affleck apparently increased his security after the FBI knocked on his door last Sunday to discuss unauthorized drone activity in the area.

A source previously told Page Six that the agency’s Ground Intercept task force contacted Argo’s director to check his CCTV footage after a private drone damaged a super scooper that was fighting wildfires.

Police officers also directed traffic to specific evacuation points around the star’s home. CONTEXT

Page Six then learned the following Tuesday that local police were also patrolling the neighborhood after neighbors hired private security who blocked some residents from accessing their homes.

In photos obtained by Page Six, Affleck appeared to have a heated conversation with two police officers stationed outside his property. Our insider confirmed the conversation involved a private security “situation.”

The “Pearl Harbor” star was photographed at the time leaning out of his BMW car and using his hands to help get his message across.

On Thursday evening, a massive military vehicle was then spotted outside Affleck’s home.

A source confirmed to Page Six that the truck belonged to the National Guard and was parked outside the evacuation points but had “nothing to do with Ben.”

Earlier this month, Affleck briefly left his $20 million rental home due to evacuation orders and stayed at his ex-wife Jennifer Garner’s residence.

However, the “Air” star was able to return home on January 8 as the property was deemed “safe.”
