Almost everything had been taken. They broke through all our security bars and robbed us in broad daylight. I cannot believe this.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The timing could not be worse for van der Burgh, as he is just days away from heading to South Africa&#039;s Olympic training camp.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Before the incident I was 100 percent focused on the upcoming games, now I have lost some of that focus,&#8221; van der Burgh said. &#8220;At the end of the day nobody was hurt and we should be thankful, so my mum and I thought, why not go ahead with the party and have a good time, and put the incident behind us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=http:\/\/www.iol.co.za\/news\/crime-courts\/swim-champ-burgled-1.1305322 target=_blank>Full text of IOLNews article.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PRETORIA, South Africa, May 26.
