The FBI has joined the investigation into break-ins at the homes of Kansas City Chiefs stars Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes, TMZ reports. The involvement of the federal agency indicates the seriousness of the case, which goes beyond the high-profile status of the athletes.
The FBI would not typically engage in a standard local burglary case, suggesting that organized crime may be involved, potentially operating across multiple states.
Mahomes’ home in Belton, Missouri, was broken into on October 6, around midnight. Details about what was stolen have not yet been disclosed. Kelce’s home in Leawood was targeted the following day, October 7. It was reported that the back door was damaged, and $20,000 in cash was stolen.
FBI representatives in Kansas City declined to comment on the Bureau’s involvement in the investigation.
TMZ has learned that Kelce and Mahomes are not the only victims. The FBI is also investigating burglaries at other homes in nearby areas.
Patrick Mahomes, the Chiefs’ quarterback, has been with the team since 2017. Travis Kelce has been a member of the Kansas City Chiefs since 2013.
