Several University of Colorado football players were the victims of an alleged robbery at the Rose Bowl on Saturday during a game against UCLA, with those affected reporting that jewelry had been stolen from their lockers.
Both the Pasadena (California) Police Department and UCLA confirmed the matter early Monday afternoon in emailed statements to USA TODAY Sports, indicating that an investigation has been launched.
"The UCLA athletic department confirmed that a report was filed to the Pasadena Police Department following the UCLA-Colorado football game regarding items that were reportedly missing from the Colorado locker room," the statements read. "UCLA is in communication with law enforcement, Rose Bowl Stadium officials and the University of Colorado on the matter."
Colorado also emailed a statement to USA TODAY Sports, indicating that the athletic department was in contact with both UCLA and law enforcement and said "the Pasadena Police Department is the lead agency handling the investigation."
No information was given on the number of players impacted by the alleged robbery, their identities or the estimated value of the items.
The news of the alleged robbery first emerged after a video was published Sunday night to the YouTube channel "Well Off Media," which is the production of Deion Sanders Jr., the son of Colorado head coach Deion Sanders.

During the video, which recaps the entire road trip to face UCLA, several players are seen after the game, commenting on the alleged robbery.
"They (expletive) broke into the locker room, bro," one voice says during the video.
"You gonna go play football, bro, you wanna know your (expletive) is safe, dog," safety Cam'ron Silmon-Craig says during the video. "That's messed up."
The Buffaloes lost to the Bruins, 28-16, and fell to 4-4 on the season.
