L.A. Vault Heist Multiple False Alarms Before $30M Burglary

The $30 million heist from an L.A. storage facility -- which sounds like an "Ocean's 11" outtake -- remains a mystery for investigators, but they're zeroing in on several false alarms triggered in the building leading up to the burglary.

TMZ pulled the calls for police service to the GardaWorld money storage facility in the San Fernando Valley. The building was hit by burglars on Easter Sunday, but it turns out there's been lots of police activity there.

Malcolm LaVergne -- the executor of O.J.'s will, and his longtime lawyer -- told THR that he might've been a little overzealous in what he initially said on this topic ... namely, that he'd fight tooth and nail to make sure the Goldmans received zero dollars from O.J.'s estate.

He says, "I can tell you in advance, Fred Goldman's claim will be accepted. And his claim will be handled in accordance with Nevada law."

The actor and SO (and soon-to-be baby mama) Natalie Viscuso were photographed in NYC Sunday ... where Nat's belly was noticeably protruding, seemingly showing off a baby bump. Of course, nobody wanted to be rude and presume that to be the case ... at least at first.

KENDALL JENNER 818 TEAM ACCUSED OF AC/DC MURAL DAMAGE ... Sources Say It's BS

Kendall Jenner's 818 Tequila brand has stirred up a storm at Coachella -- 'cause a local bar owner claims her team ruined a beloved mural of theirs ... even though we hear it's BS and have seen the contract saying they actively agreed to and acknowledged the potential for damage.

A watering hole in Indio, CA called Club 5 Bar let Kendall and co. set up shop at their establishment last week for a pop-up attraction to plug 818 ... complete with a bunch of custom decor and decorations ... including a massive decal-like sign on the outside.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

It looks like they painted 818 branding all over the wall, but they didn't -- it's actually a separate piece they slapped on top of the wall ... which is why the owner is now pissed. You see, there's an AC/DC mural underneath that they recently had installed, which he claims is now damaged as a result of how the 818 team set this whole thing up and left it behind.

Guess Who This Swingin' Kid Turned Into!

Before this adorable London native with red hair turned into a movie star, she was just enjoying the simpler things in life -- like chillin' in her swing, hanging in the backyard with her three older siblings in Bristol.

Need one more clue? Just ask her 'G.O.T' costar Sophie Turner.

Davis Clarke says he had a crappy run at the Boston Marathon, and he seems to mean that literally -- claiming he crapped his pants ... but TBH, take it with a grain of poopy salt.

The TikTok star/influencer filmed himself crossing the finish line Monday during the annual race in Beantown -- and he says he s*** himself ... proving just how damn dedicated he was to the cause. The camera does capture what looks to be blood running down his legs.

It's definitely a gross sight ... and by the looks of it, it wasn't just a little accident either -- assuming this is actually real, which we're not so sure it is.
