Three men have been arrested by authorities for their role in stealing $3 million from rapper 50 Cent.
According to reports, prosecutors in Bergen County, New Jersey have charged Matthew Gale, Richard Murphy, Travis Villalobos. The men broke into 50's property and made off with a bunch of cash and expensive jewelry.
It is unclear if the property was one of 50's homes or a luxury apartment that he used for business purposes.
The defendants are charged with charges related to theft by unlawful taking, burglary, and conspiracy to commit burglary.
50's lawyer said, "At the time the suspects were in the unit, police drove by but did not realize the individuals were still inside. The entire matter was caught on surveillance cameras."
50's team says they expect to recover the entire $3 million in loot that was stolen from his property.
The police conducted a five-month investigation which included reviewing security footage. They were able to track down the suspects due to a stolen car that was used during the burglary that was caught by the security camera.
According to court documents, the men broke into 50’s pad on January 16, 2021. They were able to force their way into the property through a garage door window. The alleged criminals ransacked the home and found an unlocked safe. Inside the safe was large amount of cash and diamond jewelry.
The men are facing years in jail if convicted on the charges.
As RadarOnline.com previously reported, 50 Cent is also dealing with trying to collect $37,000 owed to him from Love & Hip Hop star Teairra Mari.

She originally sued him after he reposted a leaked photo of her in the nude. 50 said he did nothing wrong and the image was all over the internet by the time he posted it. A judge agreed with him and awarded him attorney's fees.
For years, Mari has avoided paying a dime on the judgment. She refused to provide answers about her finances. 50 is making moves to seize her assets any way he can.
