A Metropolitan Police stated that two men broke into Alli’s house, where he is in lockdown with his brother and their respective partners.

“Police were called at approximately 00:35 BST on Wednesday 13 May to reports of a robbery at a residential address.
“Two males gained entry to the property and stole items of jewellery, including watches, before fleeing.
“Two male occupants at the property suffered minor facial injuries after being assaulted. They did not require hospital treatment.
“There have been no arrests. Enquiries into the circumstances continue.”
Alli reassured his fans that he is in good health conditions, as he handed CCTV footage to the police.
