Driver Crashes Into Gate at Beyoncé and Jay-Z's East Hampton Estate
Witness says vehicle sped up the driveway before slamming into the entrance, causing significant damage
A driver crashed through the gate of Beyoncé and Jay-Z's East Hampton home, causing significant damage to the entrance, according to Fox News.
A witness told the outlet the vehicle, driven by a man identified as Keith Jonathan Webster, sped up the driveway at "a high rate of speed" before slamming into the gate. The collision left the entrance to the couple's Long Island property badly damaged.
The East Hampton area has long been a summer retreat for the music power couple, whose properties in the region have drawn attention both for their scale and for the security measures surrounding them. The circumstances that led Webster to drive onto the property were not detailed in the available reporting, and it was not immediately clear whether he faced charges.
High-profile estates in the Hamptons frequently attract unwanted attention during the summer season, when the area's population swells with tourists and fans hoping for a glimpse of celebrity residents. Security breaches and unauthorized visitors at star-owned properties have periodically made headlines in the region.
Neither Beyoncé nor Jay-Z has publicly commented on the incident, based on available reporting.
