Justin Bieber will be charged in Los Angeles in an egg-throwing incident in January that caused damage to his neighbor’s home. The Los Angeles County district attorney’s office released a statement saying Bieber will be charged Wednesday with one count of misdemeanor vandalism. Bieber’s mansion was searched after the incident occurred and detectives filed a search warrant to obtain images from Bieber’s Instagram account to match them up to surveillance footage taken from his home. A detective also stated that a person matching Bieber’s description was seen high-fiving his friends after running toward a neighbor’s home, although footage of the actual egg attack was not captured. Sheriff’s detectives estimated the damage to the neighbor’s home to be about $20,000.
