Sophia Bush was at home sleeping when burglar broke into her LA home … and made off with $36 book
Sophia Bush was the victim of a burglary at her Los Angeles home, where the thief took a $36 book from the garage of her home.
The 42-year-old actress was sleeping in the house when the crime was committed last week, police sources said TMZ Sunday.
The Pasadena, California, resident — who was photographed in Paris on Sunday with her partner, professional soccer player Ashlyn Harris, 39 — had purchased the book as a gift to give someone during the holidays, sources told the outlet.
Bush, who appeared in the TV series One Tree Hill, was alerted to the crime after an employee who worked for her noticed her garage door had been left open.
The employee looked at security footage and saw the burglar enter the building illegally, after which the incident and the images were forwarded to the police.
The police have not yet arrested anyone in connection with the theft.

Bush — who also appeared on Chicago PD, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and This Is Us — is the latest household name to be targeted for a home invasion as the year comes to a close.
Last summer, the Southern California homes of stars like Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson; Marlon Wayans, Sarah Hyland and Bhad Bhabie were all robbed.
More recently, NFL players including Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce and Joe Burrow were also targeted in thefts that federal officials said were the result of organized criminal efforts.
Prior to her romance with Harris, Bush filed for divorce from 43-year-old businessman Grant Hughes after 14 months of marriage.
Bush filed for the split in August 2023, referencing the drastic life change in an Instagram post at the time.
“Sometimes you have to remind yourself that you are something special,” Bush said. ‘That you cannot be replaced. Your heart, your mind, your conversation, your care, it cannot be replaced. By anyone.”
Born in Cocoa Beach, Florida, Harris is a two-time World Cup champion goalkeeper, in 2015 and 2019.
Harris made headlines in her September 2023 divorce filing from fellow football star Ali Krieger, 40.

Bush, who appeared in the TV series One Tree Hill, was alerted to the crime after an employee who worked for her noticed her garage door had been left open.
The split came more than three years after they married in Miami at the Vizcaya Museum and Gardens in December 2019.
Krieger, who shares daughter Sloane and son Ocean with Harris, says Self magazine earlier this year that she was blindsided by the divorce filing.
Krieger said she “found it out while training” for the NY/NJ Gotham FC, and her teammates rallied around her during the tough time.
“I was on the field,” Krieger said. “And I came off the field, into the locker room, and I was obviously devastated. My whole team came over for a dance the night the news broke.”
Krieger has moved on romantically in a relationship with Scottish footballer Jen Beattie, 33, as the couple celebrated their romance in a Thanksgiving-themed post on Instagram Stories.
