Allie Long, fresh off a World Cup title with the United States women's national soccer team, said her Los Angeles hotel room was burglarized with her wedding ring, cash and key to New York City among the missing items.
Long and her teammates were honored in New York City on Wednesday with a ticker-tape parade up the Canyon of Heroes to celebrate the World Cup title. Mayor Bill de Blasio gave the players symbolic keys to the city during a ceremony at City Hall. The U.S. team then flew to Los Angeles to attend ESPN's ESPYs awards show Wednesday night, where they were honored as the best team.
After the show, Long said she and her husband left their room to eat with teammate Alex Morgan and her husband a couple of doors down. Long said she left the latch out on the door and was gone for 30 minutes.
