US tennis player Pam Shriver revealed on Thursday that a slew of major trophies from her Hall of Fame career were stolen along with her car after she was evacuated from the Los Angeles wildfire disaster, ESPN reported.
Shriver told the station that her car containing the silverware was found missing early Thursday after it was parked outside a hotel in Marina del Rey.
Shriver, 62, said five US Open trophies, five French Open records, five Wimbledon trophies and an Australian Open trophy were in the stolen vehicle.
“I just started taking things out to put in the car and I was like, ‘Where is the car?'” ESPN tennis analyst Shriver was quoted as saying by the network.
Shriver removed the trophies from her Brentwood home last Friday after returning to Los Angeles from a vacation in Hawaii.
Shriver had originally planned to travel from Hawaii to Melbourne to cover the Australian Open, but returned to Los Angeles after last week’s disaster that killed at least 24 people and destroyed thousands of buildings.
Although her home was not damaged in last week’s fire, she has been staying in a hotel since her return while authorities work to restore heating and power to her property.
“It’s really sad in a lot of ways that people do things like this when they’re at their lowest and in their most difficult times,” Shriver said of the theft.
