Adam DeVine has revealed that he and his wife Chloe Bridges were seen “shooting” and killing a man outside the $1.8 million Los Angeles mansion.

The Pitch Perfect star, 39, said they sat on the balcony of their $2.6 million home watching “Lamborghinis and Bentleys and Rolls Royces” drive up to the house.

He claimed they took part in a “crazy poker game” at the Hollywood Hills home and that some of the guests slept with prostitutes before the shooting.

His comments, broadcast on the “This Is Important” podcast late last night, came after police said 39-year-old Emil Lahaziel had been shot to death shortly after 2am on Wednesday morning.

Despite the obvious discomfort of his co-host Blake Anderson, Anders Holm, and Kyle Newacheck, Adam DeVine opened up about the moments leading up to Lahaziel’s murder as part of the “This Is Important” Live podcast

“This is really scary what just happened. So across the street they were playing this like a crazy poker game, right?’ he said.

“People came rolling in like Lamborghinis and Bentleys and Rolls Royces and assholes and old boys, definitely fucking prostitutes and playing cards.

‘And I see these fellows and it’s nice to sit and watch, [so] me and my wife, we’re sitting on our balcony, and this looks crazy.’

DeVine then pauses and tells the audience “this is where it gets sad.”

“Someone got killed in there,” he continues, before Anderson asks him to repeat what he said, but with the added effect of a sinister soundbyte.

“Someone got killed,” he repeats, with Newacheck replying “that’s a downer.”

‘Yeah dude, I called that s*** I called that s***. I was like ‘this is cowardly s*** going down here’ and sure enough someone is getting shot,” he continued.

“That’s sad,” Newacheck responds, when Holm quickly adds, “Yeah, a real person, not with us anymore.”

“Yeah, but that happens, people die,” DeVine says in defense of his retelling of the deadly shooting. This is not Hollywood, this is a story about my real life,” he said.
