Falcao’s home which is located in the La Florida urbanization, in the Moncloa-Aravaca district was robbed while he was playing a LaLiga match against Mallorca at the Vallecas stadium. 

However, sources say no injuries have been reported.

In the statement issued by the Police, they point out that there were two thieves who first managed to jump over the fence of the house and circumvent the security measures to enter the house.

 They were able to enter several rooms, where they stole some of the player's valuables. 

Minutes later, they were spotted and chased away by a home assistant, causing the perpetrators to flee.

 The theft was also reported that same night by Falcao.

At the time of this report, investigation is reportedly ongoing while security cameras of the home and the urbanization are being inspected, with the security guard and the home assistant set to testify.
