According to local authorities, the thieves took advantage of the fact that no one was home, broke a window, and entered to carry out the robbery. The former athlete’s mother, Patricia Lucas, realized what had happened as soon as she returned home and filed the corresponding report.

Shortly afterward, police officers arrived at the house, located in the Don Bosco neighborhood, where they set up a security operation while another group carried out forensic work inside the property.

Del Potro, 37, retired in 2022 and is considered one of the best Argentine tennis players in history; among the most important achievements of his sporting career are his victory at the US Open in 2009, and he was also part of the team that won the Davis Cup in 2016.
