PASADENA, Calif. — University of Colorado football players reported that jewelry was stolen from their locker room at UCLA on Saturday.
After the Buffaloes lost to the UCLA Bruins at the Rose Bowl, multiple players said personal jewelry left in their locker room had disappeared.
Colorado head coach Deion Sanders didn’t address the subject during his postgame press conference.
Well Off Media, operated by Deion Sanders Jr., posted a video of Colorado players outside the locker room after the game talking about the incident.
Pasadena Police told NBC News that the department is investigating.
“We are aware of players having personal belongings taken from the CU visiting locker room during Saturday’s game against UCLA at the Rose Bowl,” CU said in a statement. “We are in contact with both the UCLA and Pasadena police. The Pasadena Police Department is the lead agency handling the investigation.”
UCLA Athletics said in a statement, “The UCLA athletic department confirmed that a report was filed to the Pasadena Police Department following the UCLA-Colorado football game regarding items that were reportedly missing from the Colorado locker room. UCLA is in communication with law enforcement, Rose Bowl Stadium officials and the University of Colorado on the matter.”
After a bye week, the Buffs returned to action Saturday at the Rose Bowl. Colorado lost to UCLA, 28-16 to fall to 4-4 for the season.
The Buffaloes next play Saturday, Nov. 4, against Oregon State in Boulder. The game will kickoff at 8 p.m. MT and will be televised nationally on ESPN.
