Another athletes home has been broken into marking the sixth
South American organized crime groups were reportedly behind the break-ins at the homes of professional athletes over the course of recent months.
The FBI warned professional sports leagues about the targeted home invasions in a Liaison Information Report, ABC News reported Monday.
The report said the groups conduct "physical and technical surveillance" to prep for the burglaries. They use social media to get an idea of where and when a person will gone from their home, and then they make their mark.
The so-called "perception" that the athletes may have designer goods, expensive jewelry and cash make them targets, according to the report. The "organized theft groups" reportedly robbed the homes of at least nine professional athletes.
