Arrest made after cars stolen in home burglary of Miami sports stars

The Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office announced an arrest in the case involving three stolen luxury cars during a burglary at the home of new University of Miami quarterback Carson Beck earlier this week.

Tykwon DeAndre Anderson, 20, of Miami Gardens, Florida was placed in custody by police Thursday afternoon and faces three felony charges related to burglary of an occupied dwelling and grand theft auto, according to an arrest affidavit provided to USA TODAY Sports by the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office.

Police allege Anderson and three unknown male co-defendants arrived at Beck’s residence around 2:45 a.m. on Thursday morning and two men jumped over a concrete fence to gain access to the driveway area. Beck’s red 2023 Lamborghini Urus was parked inside the garage of the residence, the affidavit stated, while his silver 2023 Mercedes-Benz E635 and a white 2025 Range Rover belonging to Beck’s girlfriend, Hurricanes women’s basketball player and social media influencer Hanna Cavinder, were both parked in the enclosed driveway area.

One co-defendant broke into the Range Rover and obtained the garage door opener, according to police, and the device was used to gain access inside Beck’s house and the cars’ key fobs in the living room area. Anderson stole Beck’s red Lamborghini from the garage, he later told police, while Beck’s Mercedes and Cavinder’s Range Rover were stolen from the driveway simultaneously.

Beck told police he and Cavinder were asleep inside the house at the time of the suspected burglary.

The Range Rover was quickly abandoned and left on a nearby south Miami street, according to the affidavit, and police then recovered Beck’s Mercedes at approximately 1:42 p.m. on Thursday. Law enforcement were able to identify Anderson through the license plate of the rental vehicle that transported him and the three co-defendants to Beck’s house. Authorities obtained historical data from the tracking capabilities of the Mercedes-Benz E63 rented by Anderson to place the vehicle at Beck’s house at approximately 2:45 a.m. Thursday morning.

The investigation also revealed the stolen Lamborghini and rented Mercedes were traveling in tandem after the theft. Anderson was operating the rental vehicle when police arrested him. Anderson offered a ‘full confession’ during a police interview after he was placed in custody, according to the affidavit, and ‘explained in detail how the burglary occurred. He also told police he was the driver of the red Lamborghini.’

Detective Argemis Colome, a public information officer for the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office, told USA TODAY Sports the other subjects in the case remain at large and the missing red Lamborghini has not yet been recovered. The Sheriff’s Office investigation will continue, Colome said.

Beck announced his decision to transfer to Miami in January for his final year of NCAA eligibility after initially declaring for the 2025 NFL draft. He underwent season-ending elbow surgery in December and missed Georgia’s College Football Playoff run. Beck had a 24-3 record as the Bulldogs’ starting quarterback the past two seasons. He was pictured with a Lamborghini last year at Georgia and spoke to reporters in March 2024 about why he had one.

‘I’ve always been a huge car guy,’ Beck said, ‘then growing into that and being able to associate myself with that brand name that large, being able to get that car, obviously it’s a blessing. Being able to associate myself and get that car, it’s been awesome.’

Cavinder has started all 26 Miami women’s basketball games during her final college season alongside twin sister and leading scorer, Haley.

Hanna Cavinder is averaging 6.7 points, 3.2 rebounds and more than 32 minutes per game. Both sisters chose not to play college basketball last year after initially transferring from Fresno State to Miami ahead of the 2022-23 season. Their huge social media following has led to millions of dollars in NIL deals from brands such as Under Armour and WWE.
