A security guard at the Los Angeles Lakers' training center has been charged with stealing two NBA championship rings that disappeared last week.
El Segundo police said in a statement Thursday that Eddie J. Monterroso has been charged with felony grand theft and burglary. He's accused of taking the rings and gift cards valued at nearly $20,000.
Police say they searched Monterroso's Inglewood home and found the rings from the Lakers' 2009 and 2010 championship seasons.
