Upon returning home from the Rolex 24, Townsend Bell received news from his wife that their home had been broken into, with most of his racing memorabilia stolen.

Bell told the Associated Press on Monday the burglars stole 10 rings from his Indianapolis 500 appearances, a ring from his 2001 Indy Lights championship, a watch from his victory in the 2014 Rolex 24 and the Rolex he earned for winning the IMSA WeatherTech championship in 2015.

"In the end, it's just stuff, but it's special to just me," Bell told AP. "All the work you put in to get all that stuff, and at least you have recognition of the achievement, and now it's gone."

Bell wasn’t the only victim, as five homes were burglarized in his Pacific Palisades, California, neighborhood. The thieves climbed over a 6-foot fence and smashed through a glass door before ripping out a safe and removing it from the property.
