Even though Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and his family walked away without any life-threatening injuries, the entire ordeal sounds very traumatizing. ESPN reported that the burglars handcuffed Aubameyang, along with his wife and kids, as the burglary took place. Per a report by El Pais (via the Daily Mail), the thieves forced Aubameyang to empty out a safe filled with jewelry and other expensive goods after gaining access to the property by sneaking into the garden. Then, once inside, they stormed the place with guns and metal bars. Before the criminals escaped in a white Audi, they hit Aubameyang in the jaw with a metal bar and struck his wife, Alysha Behague, in the head.
Despite the injuries, the same report states that Aubameyand and Behague refused medical treatments, as to not further scar their children. At press time, the suspects are still at large. Following Aubameyang’s home invasion, his team moved him and his family into a luxury hotel.

While there’s no confirmed relationship, Aubameyang’s incident occured just one week after his fellow teammate, Robert Lewandowski, suffered the loss of a very expensive watch while out training.
