FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Police in Massachusetts have arrested a man in connection with a burglary at New England Patriots player Rob Gronkowski’s home while he was at the Super Bowl. Foxborough police say 31-year-old Anthony Almeida was charged Friday with breaking and entering, receiving stolen property and malicious destruction of property after his home in Randolph was searched.

Gronkowski’s home in Foxborough was burglarized in February while his team was in Minnesota to play against the Philadelphia Eagles. The tight end’s roommates also reported items stolen. 

Police say they have recovered some of the items that were stolen, but they have not found the guns owned by Gronkowski’s roommate, CBS Boston reports. The items that have been recovered include an Apple Watch, a Rolex Watch and two rare coins from the 1800’s.

Almeida was arraigned Friday. It’s unclear whether he’s represented by an attorney.
