During a taping of the This Is Important podcast this week, actor Adam DeVine revealed that a man was murdered outside his Hollywood Hills home.

The Pitch Perfect star had been describing the type of people he and his wife Chloe Bridges have been seeing at their neighbor’s house, when he mentioned a man was shot to death across the street from his home.

“So, across the street from my house they are running this, like, crazy poker game, right?,” he said during the taping. “Where the People were rolling up in like Lamborghinis and Bentleys and Rolls-Royces. … I see these dudes and it is fun to sit and watch, [so] me and my wife, we’re sitting up on our balcony, and like, this looks crazy … this is where it gets sad. Someone was murdered there.”

DeVine said the person was “gunned down” and although it was not clear whether he saw the killing take place, the tabloids took the story and ran with it, reporting that he witnessed the murder taking place.

The actor took to social media yesterday to clarify that he did not, in fact, witness the shooting take place.

“To be clear I DID NOT WITNESS the murder at my neighbors house!” he exclaimed. “The news keeps saying I saw it! I didn’t. I wasn’t even in LA. The neighbor throws a party (assuming poker) every Tuesday night. I’ve seen the clientele in previous weeks. That’s all.”

According to the Los Angeles Police Department, a fatal shooting did occur just after 2 a.m. Wednesday in the 7800 block of Fareholm Drive in Los Angeles. DeVine has not confirmed if this was the same killing he has been referring to.

The Los Angeles Medical Examiner-Coroner identified the victim as 39-year-old Emil Lahaziel of Hallandale Beach, Fla.

According to the LAPD, the victim was standing outside the residence talking to the suspect when he was shot.

“The suspect produced a handgun and fired multiple shots and those shots struck the victim,” LAPD public information officer Drake Madison told PEOPLE. “The suspect fled the scene east in a vehicle.”

No arrests have been made and Lahaziel was pronounced dead at the scene.

A next-door neighbor named Kimberly Block told KTLA that she believed the person living at the home may have been hosting a poker game.

“During the party, the valet let one of the guests know that somebody had arrived and was outside and wanted to talk to him,” she said. “So, the guest left the party, left the house, came outside and there was a squabble. The guy in the car shot the guest.”
