Timberwolves guard Mike Conley’s home burglarized while he was at Vikings game

Veteran NBA player Mike Conley’s Minneapolis-area home was broken into while he was at a Vikings game hyping up the crowd last Sunday.

Jason Nelson, the police chief of Medina, a suburb of Minneapolis, said Wednesday that at least two suspects broke into three houses on Sunday while the occupants were not home, according to the Minneapolis Star Tribune.

Conley’s was the second home robbed in the string of burglaries.

The burglars took an unspecified amount of jewelry from his house, police said.

Nelson revealed that the burglars “may have done some surveillance or figured out some patterns” of the residents.

In each case, the suspects entered the homes through windows on the ground floor, made a bee-line to the master bedrooms, swiped jewels and exited the houses in less than five minutes.

Surveillance video from Conley’s home captured a car that may have belonged to the suspects, but there have been no arrests yet in the case.

Conley blew the customary Gjallarhorn at U.S. Bank Stadium before the Vikings upset the 49ers on Sunday.
