NBA star Mike Conley was on hand for the Minnesota Vikings Week 2 game against the San Francisco 49ers this past Sunday.
The Minnesota Timberwolves guard participated in the Vikings' traditional pregame festivities as he helped fire up the more than 66,000 fans inside U.S. Bank Stadium. However, while Conley was attending the NFL game, several miles away, his home in Medina, Minnesota, was targeted by thieves, police said.
Conley's suburban Minneapolis residence was broken into at some point on the afternoon of Sept. 15, The Minnesota Star Tribune reported. Medina Police Chief Jason Nelson noted that Conley's property was one of three home burglaries that authorities investigated last Sunday. All of the homes were unoccupied at the time the break-ins occurred, and police believe that at least two suspects were responsible for the crimes.

Police added that the burglars left each property with an undetermined amount of jewelry.
The suspects "may have done some surveillance or figured out some patterns" of the people who lived in the homes before entering the properties, Nelson noted.

The perpetrators are believed to have approached each home from the backside, where they broke in via windows on the ground level. The thieves then went into primary bedrooms and snatched the valuable items. Each criminal act lasted for approximately five minutes, investigators said.
Video surveillance captured an image of a car fleeing Conley's home. Authorities believe the vehicle could be associated with the suspects. As of Thursday afternoon, no arrests have been made.
