The homeowners were not home at the time of the burglary, during which a security alarm was activated when someone “used a tool to smash a glass door” and enter the residence, police said.
While the LAPD did not specify what was taken from the home, NBC 4 Los Angeles, citing authorities, reported the suspects were wearing ski masks and made off with various handbags totaling $60,000.
The LAPD took a report and is reviewing security camera footage. As of Tuesday, no arrests have been made, police confirmed to PEOPLE.
PEOPLE has reached out to Ionescu’s representatives for comment.
Ionescu and Grasu married in March 2024 after the former football star popped the question in January 2023.
“Definitely, getting married was the highlight, just being able to kind of put the world on pause for two weeks and be able to celebrate something that is just so special,” Ionescu told PEOPLE in May 2024 about her wedding during the offseason.
