NextImg:Burglars swipe NHL star’s title rings amid high-profile crime wave

Pittsburgh Penguins star Evgeni Malkin had his Stanley Cup-winning rings stolen during a break-in at his home over the weekend, according to a report.

Thieves broke into Malkin’s home and swiped his three championship rings from the residence, sources told local CBS affiliate KDKA-TV. The station reported the home’s alarm system and cameras were down at the time of the heist.

It’s unclear when the burglary took place, but KDKA said it was reported hours after the team’s Saturday home game against the Ottawa Senators.



Malkin joins a growing list of professional athletes who have had their homes vandalized, often when they’re away competing.

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic had his home burglarized last month. A police report said $23,000 worth of jewelry was swiped.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow’s home was ransacked in December while he was in Dallas playing the Cowboys.  Police didn’t say what was taken.

Kansas City Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce had their homes burglarized in October. Authorities said the robbers took roughly $20,000 in cash from Kelce’s residence.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Bobby Portis Jr. took to social media in November to say thieves broke into his residence and “took most of my prized possessions.”

Cowboys defensive tackle Linval Joseph and Minnesota Timberwolves guard Mike Conley had their homes raided by thieves as well.

Police suspect foreign “burglary tourists” are behind the high-profile crime wave. 

Thieves, largely from South America, will come to the U.S. on short-term visas, scope out high-end neighborhoods and break into the homes that appear empty.
