Ty Jerome's LA Home Burglarized During Cavs Road Trip Amid Athlete-Targeted Break-Ins

The Los Angeles home of Cleveland Cavaliers shooting guard Ty Jerome was burglarized last week, per TMZ Sports.

The robbery occurred on Friday, Jan. 17, while the Cavs were on a three-game road trip. They were in Oklahoma City facing the Thunder on Thursday and traveled to Minnesota on Saturday to take on the Timberwolves.

According to TMZ, the suspects broke in through a glass window and left the house shortly after getting in. Jerome is expected to work with the local police to determine what was stolen from his home. Police are still investigating the burglary.

A number of athletes have dealt with break-ins over the past few months. Kansas City Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce, Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow, Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Dončić and more have been victims of robberies.

In December, the FBI issued a warning to pro sports leagues about athletes' homes being targeted during games or road trips. The FBI said in its report that organized theft groups from South America use social media and other public information to figure out when athletes will be away from their residences. The groups also use technology such as Wi-Fi jammers to bypass alarm systems and block wireless internet connections.

"These homes are targeted for burglary due to the perception they may have high-end goods like designer handbags, jewelry, watches and cash," the FBI said in a Liaison Information Report.

It's unclear whether Jerome's home being robbed is connected to the groups that the FBI warned leagues about.
