According to reports from TMZ, an unidentified individual falsely claimed that a bomb had been planted in the actor's mailbox, prompting a swift response from the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD). However, upon thorough inspection of the premises, no explosive device was found.
As reported by the Daily Mail, the actor's security team, who were on the scene, dismissed the possibility of a bomb being planted at the residence. They stated it would be "virtually impossible" due to the extensive camera surveillance and round-the-clock protection at Schwarzenegger's home. The 77-year-old actor, who also served as California's governor, was not present during the incident as he was at the gym preparing for his Thanksgiving celebrations.

The LAPD is treating the incident as a case of 'swatting,' a malicious prank that involves making a false emergency call to dispatch a large number of armed police officers to a particular address. Sources close to Schwarzenegger expressed gratitude towards the officers who responded to the call on a holiday, stating they were "grateful officers came to the house on the holiday to check on the situation."

Schwarzenegger, who is known for his roles in films such as Terminator and Twins, was last seen in public prior to the holiday, distributing turkeys in Los Angeles. The actor was in high spirits as he interacted with families at the Hollenbeck Youth Center. During the event, Schwarzenegger spoke to Fox 11 about the importance of giving back to the community, stating, "Giving back, to me, is everything." This act of service is reportedly a tradition the actor has maintained for over three decades.

Joining Schwarzenegger at the youth center was Tom Arnold, a 65-year-old actor and comedian. Arnold echoed Schwarzenegger's sentiments about volunteering, stating, "It’s something that will stay with you forever."
Schwarzenegger's personal life has been marked by his marriage to Maria Shriver, a journalist and member of the Kennedy family. The couple first met at a tennis match in 1977 and got engaged in Austria in 1985. They were married the following year at the Kennedy family home in Massachusetts. The couple, who divorced in 2021, have four children together. Schwarzenegger also has a son from an extramarital affair, which led to his separation from Shriver in 2011.
