Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley<\/strong><\/a> and his family are reportedly safe after authorities say they were victims of an attempted burglary<\/a>.<\/p>\n

According to the Tredyffrin Township Police Department, officers were dispatched to respond to a burglary at the 29-year-old NFL star\u2019s Pennsylvania home on Saturday, July 18, shortly after 5:00 a.m. ET. According to authorities, the alleged suspects fled the area prior to the officers\u2019 arrival.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey were home, and fortunately, as you know, with any situation like this, our main concern is that the residents of that home at the time were unharmed, which they were,\u201d Capt. Tyler Moyer<\/strong> told reporters, per ESPN. \u201cThey were fine afterwards, obviously unsettled as anyone would be.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Pennsylvania\u2019s Chester County District Attorney\u2019s Office also issued a public statement via social media in the wake of the incident, saying detectives are assisting the local police department with their ongoing investigation.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are incredibly grateful that the Barkley family was not injured during this incident,\u201d the District Attorney\u2019s office said in the statement<\/a>. \u201cWe are asking the public to help us identify those responsible by checking any home security cameras for suspicious activity in the area around 5:00 a.m. If you saw anything unusual or have video that may assist investigators, please contact the Tredyffrin Township Police Department immediately.<\/p>\n

A slew of high-profile athletes, including Kansas City Chiefs players Travis Kelce<\/strong><\/a> and Patrick Mahomes<\/strong><\/a>, have been the targets of burglaries or attempted burglaries as of late, prompting the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) to investigate whether the break-ins are \u201cconnected to a transnational crime ring such as one from South America,\u201d per a November 2024 NBC News report<\/a>.<\/p>\n

At the time, local law enforcement sources told ABC News<\/a> that the investigation cannot \u201cdiscount a local person\u201d being involved in the string of incidents either, noting that \u201cit\u2019s very easy\u201d to predict when athletes will not be home due to their very public game and practice schedules.<\/p>\n

Around the time both Kelce, 36, and Mahomes, 30, homes were targeted, Milwaukee Bucks forward Bobby Portis<\/strong> also claimed his \u201cprized possessions\u201d were stolen from his home while he was playing in a game.<\/p>\n
