The report also reveals how the thieves allegedly broke into the former University of Georgia star’s home.
Deputies said that two of the suspects jumped over a fence and broke into Cavinder’s Land Rover to steal the garage door opener. From there, the group got inside the home and stole the key fobs for the Mercedes-Benz AMG and Lamborghini.
The group then took off in all three cars before they abandoned the Land Rover nearby. Deputies later tracked Beck’s Mercedes-Benz around 1:45 p.m.
In the report, deputies claim that Anderson confessed to the crimes and explained how the group stole the cars.
The Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office has not identified the other suspects.
