Ben Affleck Spotted Finally at Ease After Weeks of Wildfire Security Irritations

Ben Affleck he was finally able to leave his Brentwood home and relax in the neighborhood with his son and new dog… After a rocky start to the New Year with wildfire fears and safety concerns in the area.

It seems Ben has upgraded his personal security in the form of a four-legged friend … and took the K-9 out for a leisurely walk with his pup and the men from Trident Elite Protection Dogs on Friday.

The exit marks a stark contrast for B.A., which from the start ran away from his mansion … then had to deal with one safety issue after another right outside her front door in the wake of a massive, deadly Palisades fire.

Days later, he was forced to evacuate his place Jennifer GarnerThe FBI visited Ben’s home as agents were in the area incident investigation in which a private drone collided with a firefighting plane, damaging it. Our sources said Ben was not a target of the investigation.

Then earlier this week … Ben was spotted having a tense conversation with the police outside his property, he seemed frustrated by the number of questions he was being asked by private security guards as he walked to and from his neighborhood.

Don’t get me wrong, Ben didn’t seem angry with the actual officers, but he was annoyed with the private security team.

And to close out the week of triggers… Thursday was a huge sand-colored military Humvee parked near his house with a man in uniform. The National Guard was deployed last week to assist with the Pacific Palisades wildfire.

To be fair… Ben’s house is near the edge of the evacuation zone, so the area is constantly guarded.
