Armed Robbers Make Off With More Than $1 Million in Property From ASAP Rocky’s House
ASAP Rocky‘s home in Los Angeles was reportedly hit by armed thieves on Tuesday night, with the suspects ultimately making off with as much as $1.5 million in jewelry and additional property. Rocky was not home at the time of the alleged incident, TMZ reported Wednesday. An unnamed relative of Rocky’s was at the residence when “three male suspects” forced their way inside.
According to TMZ, the suspects knocked on the door and pulled a gun when Rocky’s relative answered. The men then “grabbed the woman and took her around the house,” picking up millions in jewelry and additional property along the way. The men also reportedly attempted to make off with a safe from the residence, but ended up leaving it on a nearby sidewalk before leaving the scene. Rocky’s relative is not believed to have been injured during the robbery.
Sources said Wednesday that this may have been a targeted incident, not random. The Los Angeles Police Department did not immediately respond to Complex’s request for comment.
Rocky, who hasn’t publicly addressed the theft yet, released a new song featuring Frank Ocean, Lil Uzi Vert, and Quavo on Monday. “Raf” premiered on Ocean’s Blonded Radio, and Ocean kept things interesting by releasing two versions of the track featuring different Ocean verses. In April, Rocky appeared on the ASAP Mob single “Wrong” with ASAP Ferg. A new album is seemingly imminent, as 2017 marks two years since the release of the contagious psychedelia of Rocky’s excellent At. Long. Last. ASAP.
