Burglars hit the Los Angeles residence of Tracee Ellis Ross and have made off with more than $100,000 in jewelry and designer handbags, authorities said.
According to the Los Angeles Police Department (via NBC Los Angeles), the break-in was discovered around 12:30 a.m. on Sunday, August 31—staff arrived to find the home ransacked. Investigators say three people forced entry by shattering a rear glass door before moving through the property and taking valuables.
Ross was not at home at the time.
Detectives have obtained security camera footage from the property and are reviewing it as part of the ongoing investigation. No arrests had been announced as of Tuesday afternoon, and the LAPD has not released descriptions of the suspects.
Ross’s burglary adds to a run of high-profile home invasions across Los Angeles in recent months.
Last month, police responded to an early-morning burglary at Lionel Richie’s Beverly Hills home, resulting in one arrest. In June, Brad Pitt’s Los Feliz residence was ransacked while he was out of town promoting F1: The Movie. Earlier this year, Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban reported a Valentine’s Day break-in at their L.A. home after intruders smashed a glass door or window.
In each of those cases, as with the incident at Ross’s home, suspects targeted properties when residents were away and used forced entry through glass to get inside. Investigators say those similarities are part of what they’re looking at as they review footage and follow leads.
A representative for Ross did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Anyone with information is asked to contact the LAPD.
The case remains open as detectives continue canvassing the area and analyzing the recovered video. Authorities have not disclosed whether any additional security footage from neighboring properties has been collected or whether the items taken have been tracked.
