- LAFC striker was not at home during break-in
- Athletes in US have been targeted by burglars
Los Angeles FC striker Olivier Giroud’s home was the target of a burglary earlier this month, police said.
Los Angeles police said they responded on 5 February to a report that a window had been smashed at a home in west LA. Giroud and his family were not home when the incident occurred. Burglars entered the residence through the window, and when Giroud’s wife came home to find items – including 10 luxury watches – missing, she called police, according to reports by ESPN and TMZ Sports. The burglars are reported to have taken valuables worth $500,000 during the break-in.
