Man Allegedly Burglarized Milwaukee Brewers Clubhouse

Written by Tony Ghaul

Justin Bloedorn, a 25-year-old man, allegedly burglarized the Milwaukee Brewers clubhouse after he passed out in the bushes outside of American Family Field, according to Drake Bentley of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel.

Online court records show he was charged on Dec. 14 with felony burglary by the Milwaukee District Attorney’s Office after he admitted to stealing the items.

The complaint said he was attending a double-header against the San Francisco Giants on Sept. 8 with his roommate and his roommate’s father at American Family Field. He drank at least 10 beers, he said, before he passed out and got back inside the stadium by pulling a door until it opened upon waking up.

The roommate told detectives that the man went missing around the 7th inning of the second game of the double-header. The roommate still could not find him once the game finished, and eventually took the shuttle back to where he had parked before the game.

A criminal complaint says police responded to American Family Field on Sept. 9, 2022 for the reported burglary after a fan was seen on the field and in the tunnel, which are restricted areas, after the stadium was closed.

The video showed the suspect, later identified as Bloedorn, carrying bags, bats and items that were taken from various locations in the stadium.

Investigators say several items were reported as stolen from the strength coach’s office including a backpack, laptop, iPod, headphones, Walkman, sunglasses, notebooks, calendars, a credit card, and passport.

Detectives learned two Milwaukee Brewers players’ game-issued jerseys were taken from the Brewers clubhouse, and two items were removed from the manager’s office including a jersey and shaving kit.

Signed baseball bats, a replica World Series ring and keys to the Arizona spring training facility were also reported missing, along with a locker bag of baseballs and pitching training devices from the coaches’ locker room.

Investigators located Bloedorn asleep inside his apartment with a Brewers duffel bag and memorabilia. The complaint says upon their arrival, Bloedorn woke up and admitted to taking the items.
