The shocking home invasion incident unfolded shortly before 1 a.m. on Saturday, June 7, according to a police report shared with The Post by the Seattle Police Department (SPD).
A woman, later identified as the homeowner's nanny, called the SPD at approximately 12:48 a.m. to report that two men had allegedly broken into the residence and sprayed her with bear mace.

It also left the name 'Davis' unredacted in one portion of the report, which matches the last name of Macklemore's wife, Tricia Davis.
Macklemore and Davis, both 41, share three children: Sloane, 10, Colette, 7, and Hugo, 3.
'She [the nanny] escaped, but three children were still inside the house,' the police report read. '[The nanny] also added that the house belonged to a high-profile individual, [redacted], and that she believed the crime may have been politically motivated for some reason.'

The 'Thrift Shop' singer has been an outspoken supporter of Palestine amid the ongoing Israel-Palestine conflict in Gaza.
Last month, Macklemore shared a lengthy Instagram post in which he condemned the attacks on Gaza and the backlash that artists like himself were facing for 'standing up against a genocide.'
He was also axed from a music festival back in September after he chanted 'f–k America' during the Palestine Will Live Forever charity music event in Seattle.

Elsewhere in the report, the responding officer wrote that he found the nanny in 'obvious fear' at a neighboring residence.
She told the police that she was at the house and, after putting the three children to bed in their rooms on the home's second floor, witnessed two men entering a patio door near an office, according to the officer's notes.
The nanny further alleged that the two men entered the home and sprayed her with bear mace, then yelled, 'Where are the jewels, bitch?'

She said she led them upstairs to the main bedroom, at which point the two suspects allegedly 'went through drawers, cabinets and raided the closet full of clothing, jewelry and shoes.'
The SPD, in a separate release about the incident shared on Saturday afternoon, said that the two men 'ransacked the residence, stealing thousands of dollars of items.'
The nanny also claimed that she was thrown to the ground and physically assaulted by the suspects before managing to break free.

'[The nanny] began to scream, so they got her up and pinned her against a wall, the shorter one holding her mouth shut,' the report stated. 'At this point, [the nanny] tried to kick the shorter one in the groin, but was unable to, so she bit onto his hand hard, causing him to let go.'
'[She] then fled through the bathroom and out of the house,' it continued. '[She] knocked on numerous residences before someone opened the door and allowed her inside to call the police.'
Cops later arrived and found the residence in 'obvious signs of disarray.'

The responding officers were able to 'safely extract' the three children from the home, at which point they were handed off to family members who had arrived at the residence.
'The house was searched and checked clear of any suspects, with the three children safely extracted,' the report read. 'There were obvious signs of disarray in the portions of the house described by [redacted] to be involved and bear spray was still present in the air through portions of the house.'
'Various family members responded to the scene,' it continued. 'I escorted the family and [redacted] to the house after the scene was rendered safe and the house was searched. The family members took custody of the children for the evening and took them to a safe residence nearby.'
