The Los Angeles home of actress Sophia Bush was burglarized recently after a thief was seen walking into her home via a garage door to rob the place while the actress was inside, according to reports.
The Chicago P.D. actress and her girlfriend, pro soccer player Ashlyn Harris, were reportedly asleep in their bedroom last week when the thief gained access to the home, TMZ reported.
Fortunately for the actress, the theft was quick and minor as the crook reportedly only took a brand new copy of “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” from Bush’s car before fleeing the scene. The book, Bush said, was going to be a Christmas gift for someone in her life.
The theft was discovered by a member of Bush’s staff who saw the garage door open and, upon reviewing security footage, saw the theif flee. The incident was reported to the Los Angels Police Dept., but so far there are no suspects in the case.
