Ben Affleck was seen having an intense conversation with law enforcement officers while pulling out of his driveway in Brentwood on Tuesday, just two days after his home received a shocking visit from the FBI.

FBI agents and deputies from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department were seen arriving at Affleck’s home on Sunday. The officers waited outside the gate of his property for several minutes before leaving.

They were allegedly investigating an incident in which a private drone collided with a firefighting plane, damaging it. TMZ information.

Affleck’s home is not located in an evacuation zone, but he lives near Pacific Palisades, a neighborhood that has been devastated by one of the fires.

On Tuesday, he was seen in his car leaving his home in Brentwood, where a police vehicle was seen right outside his door.

Argo’s director appeared stern and gestured emphatically out of his car window as he spoke to authorities in front of his home.

DailyMail.com has contacted a representative for Affleck for comment.

Two days earlier, the FBI and the sheriff’s department were seen outside Affleck’s home, investigating a collision between a private drone and a plane that had been helping the LAFD fight the fires that devastated the entire county since last Tuesday, killing 24 people and destroying thousands of homes.

It’s unclear if the Armageddon star was home when the visit occurred.

Their $20.5 million home has so far emerged unscathed from the Los Angeles fires, even though the Brentwood property is on the edge of Pacific Palisades, which has been devastated by the fire.

As of Tuesday afternoon, 24 people have died in the Palisades Fire and the Eaton Fire, which originated in Altadena, near Pasadena, according to a statement from the Los Angeles County medical examiner.

FBI agents and sheriff’s deputies appear to have used the phone booth next to Affleck’s front door, but the door was never opened.

One FBI agent was seen wearing a short-sleeved shirt with the bureau’s logo on the back, while another person was seen wearing a bulletproof vest with the same logo on the back.

At one point they approached the door, possibly to knock on it.

Two other law enforcement officers were seen leaving the property, one of whom was wearing a Sheriff’s Department-branded windbreaker, while the other was wearing a utility vest.

The safety of Ben’s home has apparently been up in the air this past week, as it is located very close to the Palisades Fire, which was only 13 percent contained as of Sunday night.

Last week, the actor-turned-director was photographed shocked as he returned home at night when flames were seen nearby.

Ben quickly evacuated and then rushed to his ex-wife Jennifer Garner’s nearby home in Brentwood to help her and their children get to safety.

He seemed to be particularly focused on family over the weekend as he was seen giving his eldest daughter, Violet, a loving hug.

Although with the 19-year-old Yale student, Ben also shares Fin, 16, and Sam, 12, with Garner, whom he married in 2005 and from whom he separated in 2015.

He was seen helping his ex-wife Jennifer Garner and their children evacuate last week. She revealed on NBC that she lost a friend in the fire after they “didn’t get out in time.”

Ben was previously seen returning home from his office, despite his home apparently being under a mandatory evacuation order.

He and his family have been lucky so far, but Garner revealed that the losses from the fire had hit close to home.

“I lost a friend who didn’t leave on time,” she revealed, her voice beginning to crack with emotion, while speaking with chef José Andrés and Katy Tur for MSNBC.

So far, more than 180,000 people have been forced to evacuate as massive fires hit Los Angeles.

Although many celebrities have been devastated by the fires, many more people who are not rich or famous have been displaced by the deadly fires.

Last week, DailyMail.com learned that Affleck has “no plans” to attend the upcoming Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah, where his ex Jennifer Lopez’s remake of Kiss Of The Spider Woman will premiere.

Ben was a producer on the project, as he was on her recent film Unstoppable, but opted out of its advertising campaigns to let his ex shine.
