A terrifying incident has shaken the Gold Coast Titans after their key player, Jaxson Paulo, was targeted in a brazen home invasion on November 22, 2023, at his Gold Coast residence. The 25-year-old winger, known for his speed and 55 NRL appearances, confronted a group of intruders who broke in shortly after midnight while he and his wife slept. The thieves demanded valuables and fled with high-value items, including Paulo’s collection of signed playing jerseys, which he described as “priceless” for their sentimental value. No weapons were used, and no one was physically harmed, but the psychological toll was significant. Paulo raised the alarm, and Queensland Police charged a 19-year-old Logan man with offenses like entering premises with intent and unlawful vehicle use; the case has progressed through courts, though full details remain limited as of November 2025. The burglary, treated as an opportunist crime, reflects a 15% spike in Gold Coast property crimes in 2024. Paulo returned to training quickly, scoring in the Titans’ next game, and the club boosted player security protocols. He publicly appealed for the jerseys’ return, but they remain missing. The incident underscores vulnerabilities for NRL stars, often targeted via social media, and highlights the personal toll of such crimes. If this isn’t the event you meant, perhaps involving another Titan like David Fifita, provide more details for a deeper look.
