Burglary Probe Underway After Late NASCAR Driver Greg Biffle's Home Hit
Law enforcement in North Carolina have launched an investigation into a reported break-in at the former home of late NASCAR driver Greg Biffle, who died in a plane crash last month. According to authorities, an incident report filed by the Iredell County Sheriff's Office indicates that someone allegedly entered Biffle's residence in Mooresville and made off with an estimated $30,000 in cash, a stolen backpack, and several firearms.
Sheriff Darren Campbell is leading the probe, which is still in its early stages. While no arrests have been made, investigators are working to piece together the events of January 8, when the alleged break-in occurred. According to Campbell, interviews with potential witnesses and forensic analysis of digital evidence will be crucial in determining what happened.
The investigation comes as authorities continue to scrutinize the circumstances surrounding Biffle's fatal plane crash on December 18. The Cessna C550 aircraft carrying Biffle, his wife, two children, three others, and a pilot crashed shortly after taking off from Statesville Regional Airport, killing everyone on board. The cause of the crash remains under investigation.
Biffle was an accomplished NASCAR driver with 19 wins in the Cup Series during his career. A public memorial service for him and the six other victims is scheduled to take place at a Charlotte arena later this week.

I mean, $30k gone and some stolen stuff? It's not like he was carrying around life-changing cash or anything. And now the sheriff is saying it's all about piecing together digital evidence? How long is this going to take? Like, seriously, can't they just find out who did this and move on? 
just heard about Greg Biffle's house getting broken into... $30k worth of stuff stolen 
and a bunch of guns taken too 
now his wife and kids are left with nothing, can't even grieve properly in peace 
meanwhile the pilot's family is still trying to figure out what happened to them in that plane crash last month... 
still no word on what caused it, just more questions 
just heard about Greg Biffle's home being broken into while they're still trying to figure out what happened with that plane crash... it's all so sad 
I feel bad for his family and friends, they must be going through some tough times already. The fact that someone would steal from him like this is just disgusting 
can't even imagine how hard it must be for them to deal with not only the loss of their loved one but also the theft of some of their belongings... 
my heart goes out to everyone involved 
i feel so bad for his family they're already grieving over his passing and now they have to deal with this too 
at least it's not like he had a family of millions but still 
.
And what's with the backpack and firearms? That just raises more questions, you know? 
I'm kinda surprised no one caught anything on camera, that'd be super helpful for the investigation. 
Still, gotta feel bad for Biffle's family dealing with all this. 
Plus, Sheriff Campbell and his team are doing their thing, gathering evidence and interviewing witnesses, so I'm sure they'll figure out what happened. It's all about solving puzzles and finding answers! 
. And now he's got his whole life stolen too 
. Guess some people just don't have the luck of fortune 
I'm so tired of these senseless crimes... 30k in cash and firearms gone, all because of some greedy thief's stupidity. It's like they don't even care about the victims' families or anything 
$30k & all that stuff just taken from them 
. I mean, Greg Biffle was a talented driver and all, but that doesn't excuse whoever did this 
. The investigation is still in the early stages, so fingers crossed they catch the person(s) responsible ASAP 
. It's just so sad for his family too... losing someone like that can be really tough 
. You'd think with all the security cameras around Mooresville, someone would've caught a glimpse of the burglar 
. Anyway, my condolences to Greg's family & loved ones, still reeling from that plane crash 
#JusticeForGregBiffle #NASCAR #Mooresville
. I'd love to see some justice served on these burglars...
