Jax with wife Renata…what was up with the security system??
Masked gunmen entered Charlotte Bobcats star Stephen Jackson’s home early Wednesday morning in an apparent robbery attempt and held his wife at gunpoint before locking her in a bathroom, according to police. See story below…
Three men broke into the home in a gated community of two dozen million-dollar homes around 2:45 a.m. Wednesday, police said.
Jackson was in Texas for a basketball camp and his wife was not injured, multiple media organizations reported.
Charlotte-Mecklenburg police had made no arrests as of Friday morning, Officer Rosalyn Harrington, a department spokeswoman, told The Associated Press.
Police did not release any other details about the incident.
Jackson is a shooting guard who helped lead the Bobcats to their first playoff appearance last spring.
Public records list Jackson and his wife, Renata, as occupants of the $1.7 million home where they’ve lived since December, The Charlotte Observer reported. Jackson arrived in Charlotte the previous month after the team acquired his contract rights in a trade with the Golden State Warriors.
The 6,300-square-foot tan stucco home with three garages is owned by former Bobcats guard Jason Richardson, who was traded to the Phoenix Suns during the 2008-09 season.
Jackson, 32, could not be reached for comment at the printing of this report but you gotta figure dude is pretty upset over this! Thankfully, his wife was not harmed.
I don’t want to speculate but the incident does beg the question: What was up with the security system? Did the Jacksons even have one in place? Was it on?
It just makes me recall that tragic robbery attempt involving deceased Redskin safety Sean Taylor a few years back. That turned into Taylor’s murder. No security system in place at Taylor’s home. You wonder could his death had been avoided if there was one.
All the details are yet to be known with the Jackson incident but I do know that there are some multi-million dollar athletes that forget they are wealthy and don’t have adequate security at their homes!
Wake up peoples! Protect yo ish!! And you and your loved ones. Call ADT!!
