CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Police are investigating a home invasion and armed robbery at the home of Charlotte Bobcats player Stephen Jackson, a former member of the Indiana Pacers.
Multiple media organizations reported today that three masked gunmen entered Jackson’s home in a gated community of million-dollar homes early Wednesday. Police say the thieves took a 9mm pistol, a ruby-encrusted wristwatch, a Louis Vuitton wallet and other items.
Jackson was in Texas for a basketball camp. His wife was home and was forced into a bathroom, where police found her. She wasn’t hurt. Police say there were no signs of forced entry at the 6,000-square-foot home. No arrests have been made. Jackson could not be reached for comment and the Bobcats declined comment.
I just hope the police are smart enough to know that a crime is going to be committed with that stolen 9mm and that the robbers will be dumb enough to use it. Stay up Steve Jackson!
