Bodycam footage shows dramatic moment cops arrest illegal immigrants over burglary at Joe Burrow's $7.5m home

Police bodycam footage of the moment four Chilean nationals were arrested in connection with the recent burglary of Joe Burrow’s $7.5million home has been released.

The Cincinnati Bengals quarterback saw his Ohio mansion ‘ransacked’ back in December and it emerged on Tuesday that the authorities detained four men over the incident.

The group – who cops reportedly claimed were ‘illegally in the country or overstayed their permissions’ – were found with LSU and Bengals gear which is suspected to have been taken from Burrow.

The men – identified as Alexander Chavez, Bastian Morales, Jordan Sanchez and Sergio Cabello – were taken into custody on January 10 following a traffic stop in Ohio.

Footage of that stop has now emerged and shows Ohio State Highway Patrol officers pulling over their vehicle just before 2pm.

The officer asks where they are heading and one of the suspects replies: ‘Florida’. A second then gets out of the driver’s seat and is asked if he has any weapons before the officer instructs him to sit in his vehicle.

According to reports at the time, a bedroom window was shattered at Burrow’s mansion. 

The quarterback became the latest NFL star to be the victim of a burglary in the middle of a game.

Hamilton County (Ohio) sheriffs last month confirmed the break-in in the suburb of Anderson Township, while Burrow was 1,000 miles away – facing the Dallas Cowboys at AT&T Stadium.

It’s claimed that the suspects also had a phone, with cell site data placing it in the area of the Bengals star’s home. 

According to TMZ, the men are facing four felony charges, including possessing criminal tools and participation in a criminal gang.

Burrow previously said he felt ‘violated’ by the break-in, which was cloaked in mystery after it emerged that the 911 call was made by Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model Olivia Ponton, rather than the quarterback’s longtime partner Olivia Holzmacher. 

Ponton – who boasts eight million followers on TikTok – is said to have told officers that she noticed ‘a shattered bedroom window and the room ransacked’ when she arrived at the property.

Burrow has been in a relationship with Holzmacher since his college days at Ohio State, with the pair first going public with their romance back in 2017.

Last year former Bengals cornerback Adam ‘Pacman’ Jones even claimed the couple were engaged, though neither party has ever confirmed the news.

Burrow and Holzmacher have not been seen in public together since the latter shared a pH๏τo of them in January 2024, sparking rumors that they may have separated.

When Ponton arrived at Burrow’s house and discovered that someone had broken in, she reportedly phoned her mother, Diane, who then called police.

Diane is quoted as saying on the call: ‘[Olivia] is wondering what she should do, if she should be hiding or if she should be going outside.’ 

Ponton could later be heard saying in a separate call: ‘Someone broke into my house… It’s like completely messed up.’

It is unclear why Ponton was at Burrow’s home, though documents from the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office stated that she is ’employed by Mr. Burrow.’

The police report also added that she gave officers ‘a non-detailed itemization of what items were possibly missing.’
