Trey Mendel Arrested in Kim Kardashian Home Burglary, Taking Staff Car for Joyride at 27

Q: What exactly was the suspect loading into a stolen car before being caught at the vacant Kardashian mansion?

It has not been publicly disclosed what the suspect was loading into the vehicle. Authorities and initial reports only say the man was seen loading “items,” “several items,” or “numerous items” into a car at Kim Kardashian’s Hidden Hills property before deputies arrived and arrested him. Law enforcement has not released an inventory of those items, and officials have said the investigation is still ongoing. Some follow-up reporting described the vehicle as possibly belonging to a staff member and said the suspect may have driven it around the neighborhood, but those accounts also did not identify the specific property allegedly being taken from the home. So the precise answer is that the items have not been identified publicly; only that they were described as valuables or unspecified belongings from the residence.

27-year-old Trey Mendel was identified by authorities as the suspect arrested after a weekend burglary at Kim Kardashian's Hidden Hills home.
A security guard called deputies just before 4 p.m. Sunday after Mendel allegedly entered through a side door, loaded items into a car and drove off in a staff member's vehicle.
Neither Kardashian nor her children were at the property, which is under renovation, and Mendel remains in custody on burglary and unlawful vehicle-taking allegations.
The case has not yet been formally charged and will be sent to the Los Angeles County District Attorney for review.
The break-in adds to earlier crimes targeting Kardashian, including the 2016 Paris robbery in which about $10 million in jewelry was stolen.
