CNN has reached out to authorities and a representative for Macklemore for comment.
A woman later identified as a nanny caring for children in the house reportedly 'told an officer that she had put the kids to bed when she saw two men entering from a patio door before one of them doused her with bear spray.'
According to a Seattle Police Department description of the incident, there were two males suspects and one of them 'held her to the ground while they ransacked the residence stealing thousands of dollars of items.'
'The suspects were inside for several minutes until the victim was able to get free and call the police,' the police blotter states. 'The suspects fled shortly after the victim was able to escape.'
The three children in the home were reportedly unharmed.
The Seattle Times noted that the alleged incident occurred 'after a Seattle man was charged with targeted home burglaries of four Seattle-area professional athletes, including former Seattle Seahawks Richard Sherman and Seattle Mariners outfielder Julio Rodríguez.'

Man handcuffed for allegedly giving out face shields to ‘suspected rioters' at LA protest
LOS ANGELES (KTLA) – Federal authorities handcuffed a man in East Los Angeles on Thursday who allegedly handed out face shields during an immigration protest. His detainment sparked a backlash from local residents. FBI agents handcuffed Alejandro Theodoro Orellana for allegedly 'distributing face shields to suspected rioters' on Tuesday, U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli posted on the social media platform X. The post included a photo of the suspect, along with a broadcast clip from Fox News appearing to show a man providing masks to protestors from the back of a pickup truck. Protesters attempt to disturb ICE agents at Los Angeles-area hotels 'We are moving quickly to identify and arrest those involved in organizing and/or supporting civil disorder in Los Angeles,' Essayli stated in the post. An LA resident living in the area of East 6th Street and South Rowan Avenue told Nexstar's KTLA that he knew Orellana — not very well — but was unaware of any criminal activity on Orellana's part. 'No, nothing of the sort. Nothing at all. No one in this block have I heard any, you know, bad news from or any gossip,' the resident said. Protests over immigration raids continue across the US with more planned At the time of the interview, the resident said he was not aware of why authorities had detained Orellana. He did say, however, that he awoke on Thursday to the sound of flash bangs and calls from authorities to stay indoors. Video shared to showed a small crowd shouting at law enforcement near East 6th Street and South Ditman Avenue around 6:30 a.m. One person is seen using a bullhorn while another is heard shouting expletives at deputies. Law enforcement left the area around 6:45 a.m. This story was updated at 5:14 p.m. EDT to reflect that Orellana was handcuffed and detained, not arrested. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.

Pennsylvania man sentenced to 23 years in prison for drugs, money laundering
PITTSBURGH, Pa. (WTAJ) — A Pennsylvania man was sentenced to more than two decades in federal court after a drug trafficking and money laundering operation spanning from the Pittsburgh area to California. Andrew Beatty, 41, of Crafton was sentenced to 23 years, followed by 5 years of supervised release by US District Judge Cathy Bissoon after an extensive investigation found Beatty was the leader of a large-scale Pittsburgh-area drug trafficking organization with associates in California assisting the operation. The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), along with multiple federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies, uncovered that Beatty and associates would coordinate shipments of heroin and cocaine hidden within vehicles that were then transported via commercial car carriers from California to Pennsylvania. In December of 2013 by DEA agents and the Ohio Highway Patrol conducted a traffic stop of a car-carrier truck that housed a car that Beatty had shipped to the Mexican organization in California. After a search of that car, $130,000 was seized. According to the authorities, after that incident, Beatty would go on to use a Colombian broker to arrange the transport of money to the Mexican organization. What the associates were not aware of was that the broker was an undercover DEA agent. That agent would go on to receive almost $225,000 each time from Beatty or his associates. Throughout early 2014, multiple searches occurred of cars as well as storage lockers of Beatty's that found heroin, cocaine, money, and guns. Beatty was convicted on multiple counts of conspiracy to distribute five kilograms or more of cocaine and a kilogram or more of heroin and conspiracy to launder drug trafficking proceeds.
