Fortunately, his girlfriend Paige Milian and their two children, Thiago and Thai-Cruz, were safe while Sterling rushed upstairs to confront the burglars and drive them away.
According to a source, Sterling was running purely on adrenaline, which helped him intimidate the intruders, forcing them to flee the house empty-handed.
London police believe the burglars assumed Sterling would be at Stamford Bridge, where his team was playing against Wolverhampton, but Raheem chose to stay home with his family.
