Strange Heist Outside SoFi Stadium Leaves Police Searching For Bird Thief

On Sunday, September 28, 2025, police say a man stole a maroon Kawasaki Mule two-seater UTV and two Harris's Hawks in green containers from SoFi Stadium .
Leaving the vehicle key in the ignition allowed the suspect to drive the Kawasaki Mule UTV off SoFi Stadium property, and SoFi's use of hawks controlled by a falconer explains why the raptors were on the vehicle.
Witnesses saw the suspect drive the maroon Kawasaki Mule UTV, a two-seater resembling a heavy-duty golf cart, off the lake area of SoFi Stadium; it was last seen in the Century Village shopping area last week.
On Monday, the Inglewood Police Department urged the public to call 310-412-5206 or Crime Stoppers at 800-222-8477 as they actively search for the suspect.
A 2023 article noted the falconer at SoFi Stadium used six to eight Harris's hawks to control seagulls attracted by water and leftover food.
