Some alleged criminals apparently saw Dr. Dre was in the hospital because they tried breaking into his home … law enforcement sources tell TMZ.
Our sources say 4 men were on Dre’s Pacific Palisades property Wednesday around 2 AM. Security spotted them as they were casing the house. Before they could get to the main structure, security confronted them and quickly called police. The men fled, but cops arrived almost immediately and chased the 4 would-be burglars, catching and arresting them.
Law enforcement believes the men saw our story — that Dre was in the hospital after suffering a brain aneurysm — and saw a window of opportunity.

The four men involved in the burglary attempt were arrested and are currently in police custody.
As for Dre it appears that he’s going to pull through after he posted an update on his condition on social media.
