The FBI seems to be closing in on the people responsible for burglarizing the homes of professional athletes.
The disturbing trend of celebrity athletes’ homes being broken into has continued. Luka Doncic has joined a long list that also includes Patrick Mahomes, Joe Burrow, Travis Kelce, Bobby Portis Jr., Tyler Seguin, and Dak Prescott.
The Mavericks superstar had his home broken into Friday night as he reportedly had jewelry valued at around $30,000 stolen, according to a police report obtained by the Dallas Morning News.
“No one was home at the time, and thankfully Luka and his family are safe,” Doncic’s business manager Lara Beth Seager told the newspaper. “Luka has filed a police report, and an investigation is ongoing.”
The home of Tyler Seguin, a longtime Dallas Stars leader and seven-time NHL All-Star, was burglarized last month.
Before that, Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce had their homes hit. Joe Burrow’s home and Dak Prescott’s fiancee’s car would be next.
The FBI thinks is sure they know exactly who is behind all of this.
The Federal Bureau of Investigations believes South American organized crime groups were reportedly behind the break-ins at the homes of professional athletes over the course of recent months, per The Los Angeles Times.
The report said the groups conduct “physical and technical surveillance” to prep for the burglaries and then utilize social media to get an idea of where and when a person will leave their home, which is when they decide to strike.
FBI Sends Out Warning To Professional Sports Leagues Over String of Burglaries
The FBI is desperately trying to catch the people involved with targeting professional athletes.
It has gotten so bad that they have issued a notice to sports leagues to inform them on how to protect themselves from future crimes.
The advisory details how at least nine professional athletes were targeted at their homes across the country between September and November.
The FBI further warned that the behavior exhibited was consistent with past practices employed by international criminal organizations.
VIDEO: Philadelphia Eagles Fans Did This Female Dallas Cowboys Fan So Dirty In The Stands During Their Week 17 Match Up
The Philadelphia Eagles are one of the best teams in the NFL and have argued that they should be considered among the top three teams this NFL season. After beating the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday, they clinched the NFC’s number two seed.
The Eagles played the Cowboys on Sunday, the second-to-last game of the 2024 NFL season. Jaylen Hurts was not on the active roster. Hurts had been pulled in the first quarter of their week 16 game in Washington against the Commanders.
On the other hand, Dallas Cowboys fans have had a rough season in 2024. This year, the Cowboys had their first losing season since 2020, and the NFC East is looking completely different heading into the Super Bowl 59 playoffs.
In fact, the rivalry between Philly and Dallas is one of the best in the NFL, and a couple of fans had fun with the rivalry and caught it all on video. The hilarious video, which features a bunch of Eagles fans and Cowboys fans, is going viral.
Philadelphia Eagles Fans Are Feeling Empathy For Cowboys Fans Following Week 17
In the video, many Eagles fans can be seen attempting to help get some tissues to a Cowboys fan who was in attendance at Lincoln Financial Field. The Cowboys fan wiped some “tears” before tossing the tissues into the air.
Fans loved the video and were pleased with the young Cowboys fans’ reaction to being handed the tissues.
“She’s a good sport!!!” commented one fan.
“Haha at least she’s a good sport,” confirmed another.
“I almost have mad respect for this lady,” added another fan.
Other fans commented with a number of laughing emojis, so it’s safe to say that no one was really against what these Eagles fans did!
After all is said and done, Eagles fans will be able to enjoy a home playoff game this postseason; however, Cowboys fans will have to wait and see what happens next. Whatever the case may be, it seems most want McCarthy fired.
