A knife-wielding former chef was slapped with a fine and a three-year restraining order after terrorizing the London home of “Doctor Strange” star Benedict Cumberbatch and his family.
Cumberbatch, his wife Sophie, and their three children were all reportedly home when Jack Bissell, wielding a fish knife, kicked the home’s iron gate shouting “I know you’ve moved here, I hope it burns down.”
Bissell, who used to work at Mayfair Hotel, then reportedly threw a plant at a wall and spat at the intercom while damaging it with the knife, according to BBC.
Police arrested him and found DNA on the intercom, causing him to plead guilty to criminal damage. He was fined 250 pounds following the decision last 10 May.
Cumberbatch, who was reportedly “absolutely terrified” and had “sleepless nights worrying,” didn’t release any statement.
