Three men are in custody after they allegedly broke into the home of José Altuve and stole seven-figure worth of jewelry.
The crime occurred on March 30, Opening Day, when Altuve’s Houston Astros faced the Chicago White Sox in Houston.
The three men, Patrick Bernard Maxey (27), Jordan Tarniella (25) and William Jones, Jr., 28, allegedly broke into the home shortly before 8:30 p.m. CT and left 10 minutes later with 13 watches, one of which cost over $400,000, via KHOU.

Altuve was in the stadium during the incident and had forgotten to set his alarms.
Prosecutors say cell phone data shows Maxey was at Altuve’s home at the time of the incident. Surveillance footage shows the three men reunited before heading to the house.

Tarniella said the other two men offered to pay him for his role in the crime, but he never received any money.
