Macklemore’s Seattle home was robbed in a home invasion Saturday while his three kids were sleeping in their rooms, according to the Seattle Police Department. The police report obtained by People showed that the kid’s nanny contacted the police after two men broke into the residence. The nanny claimed that the men sprayed her with bear mace and yelled “where are the jewels, b---h?” According to the report, she went on to say that “for some unexplainable reason,” one of the men helped clean the mace out of her eyes and looked “fearful.” The police said that the two suspects “ransacked the residence, stealing thousands of dollars of items,” before the nanny was able to escape and contact the police. The incident report stated that the home belonged to a “high-profile individual,” The Seattle Times finding that the address listed matched that on the “Thrift Shop” rapper’s voting record, whose real name is Benjamin Hammond Haggerty. People also noted that the report did not redact the name “Davis,” which matches the last name of Macklemore’s wife, Tricia Davis. According to the report, Macklemore’s three children did not sustain any injuries and were “safely extracted” from the residence before being placed in the care of family members. The rapper has three children, Sloane, 10, Colette, 7, and Hugo, 3. Macklemore was reportedly not at his home at the time of the incident.
