LAW enforcement officers have arrested a Blink-182 fan after she crashed a security gate in hopes of meeting Travis Barker.
The rocker was not home when the incident occurred, as he and his bandmates are set to headline Coachella this weekend in place of Frank Ocean.

The woman drove to Travis’ gated community and was repeatedly turned away by security, according to TMZ.
She is said to have tried four times to get through before deciding to drive her car into the security gate.
The woman was intercepted by Travis’ private security team and held until police arrived on the scene.
According to police sources, the woman believed that she was talking with Travis on social media.
The person with whom she was chatting encouraged her to come and visit, which is why she was there.
It was not, however, actually Travis who she had been chatting with.
Law enforcement officials confirmed to the outlet that the woman was ultimately arrested.
Travis was rehearsing with Blink-182 at the time.
He was on his way back home but was urged by security to stay put until the situation was under control, according to TMZ.
This will be Blink-182’s second weekend headlining Coachella.
Travis’ wife Kourtney Kardashian shared snaps from the first weekend, taking fans behind the scenes.
KOURT-CHELLA
The Hulu star recapped the action-packed weekend on her Instagram feed, sharing various behind-the-scenes photos.
Among selfies, photos of Travis’ trailer, and a sweet snap of them together, Kourtney, 43, wowed followers with a PDA-filled snap of her and her hubby in a crowd.
The pic showed the Kardashians star embracing Travis while a furry black and blue ensemble and knee-high boots.
Her rockstar husband was shirtless, wearing just black jeans, a studded belt, and sneakers.
The couple appeared to be making out, though their faces were slightly obscured by the Poosh founder’s puffy sleeve.
AT THE ROCK SHOW
Folks in Travis’ inner circle also gave fans a little backstage access to Blink-182’s Coachella performance.
A friend shared an Instagram Story showing the musician’s drum set before the band took the stage.
However, many fans were distracted by a container sitting beside the drum kit that had the words “nipple cream” written in black ink.
Many fans were concerned for the drummer but ultimately realized that it was just a joke.
Written on the side, the container actually had rubbing alcohol pads inside.
“It’s actually alcohol wipes which he would use to clean drums and sticks during a set,” one Reddit user wrote.
“This is blink 182 we’re talking about who are famously known for their teenage boy humor,” another mentioned, “It’s clearly a joke.”
