Law enforcement sources said the burglary occurred at the rapper’s Los Angeles residence at 2:30 am, Tuesday, TMZ reported Friday.

The thieves held guns and moved plants off the patio and out of their way before they smashed in the glass door. The nanny caught them off guard. She said the three suspects immediately fled the scene by frantically running out of the house when they saw her, according to TMZ.

Blxst wrote a caption alongside the video and was clearly angered by the incident.
“The level of strength it take to not crash out rn smh. Imagine being across the country away from my family during one of the heights of my career & waking up to my son face timing at 4am saying ‘I think bad guys are in the house’ Words ca’’t express the frustration & the emptiness in my heart and soul not being able to be there to protect my boys,” he said.
“God know my heart… why play with mine? I take pride in being humble and pure but to be honest idk who to trust I’m just glad my family good overall. Thank GOD I’m in position to go to war and willing to die behind mine… PRAY FOR MY FAMILY,” he wrote.
