Macklemore’s house was broken into by two masked burglars who are accused of stealing his belongings after bear spraying his children’s nanny in a shock incident.
The 41-year-old rapper’s nanny – who was home with his three children at the time – told police that she caught sight of the two men using a patio door to get into the Seattle home Saturday night, after she had put the children to bed.
According to the police report, she said she was then hit with the bear spray – but added that immediately afterwards, one of the men looked ‘fearful’ and began ‘for some unexplainable reason’ to help her wipe her eyes.
Per the report, the other man then demanded to know the location of the ‘jewels’ and she helped them find the valuables, whereupon they seized watches, shoes and jewelry, forcing the nanny to the ground and taking her phone.
The nanny said that she managed to bite one of the intruders and flee the house, which is located in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Seattle, via the Seattle Times.
A hair-raising doorbell video obtained by DailyMail.com shows the nanny frantically pounding on a neighbor’s door, trying the knob and begging: ‘Help, please!’
DailyMail.com has contacted Macklemore’s representative and the Seattle Police Department for comment.

Macklemore, real name Benjamin Haggerty, was presumably out of the country at the time, as he played a concert in Frankfurt, Germany on Sunday.
The police report states that after escaping the house, the nanny knocked on multiple neighbors’ doors and one of them eventually admitted her, at which point she called 911.
She informed the authorities that she did not see any guns in the possession of the two home invaders, whom she described as having worn masks, gloves and vests that appeared ‘tactical in nature.’
In an incident report about the home invasion, the Seattle Police Department said that the burglars seized ‘Thousands of dollars of items.’
Video footage shows the burglars leaving the property, and they managed to vacate the scene before the authorities arrived, according to TMZ.
A police report refers to the owner of the house as a ‘high-profile individual’ while leaving his name redacted, but the home address listed on Macklemore’s voting records reportedly matches that of the property that was targeted.
Macklemore’s children were apparently unhurt in the incident and were placed in the charge of their relatives in the wake of the robbery.
Local police have confirmed that the nanny also emerged from the ordeal without sustaining any serious injuries, per the U.S. Sun.

The rapper has been married to his wife Tricia Davis since 2015 and they share two daughters, Sloane, 10, and Collette, seven, as well as a son called Hugo, three
Although the authorities were unable to make it to the property before the thieves disappeared, they did discover some clothing and a can of bear spray nearby.
The rapper has been married to his wife Tricia Davis since 2015 and they share two daughters, Sloane, 10, and Collette, seven, as well as a son called Hugo, three.
Macklemore, who hails from the Seattle suburbs, reportedly bought his Capitol Hill house for $2.1 million in 2014, according to the local real estate website Urban Living.
Spread across 2,920 square feet, the property includes three bedrooms and 2.25 bathrooms with breathtaking views of the water.
