The house in Buckinghamshire came to public attention when Osbourne was involved in a quad-bike accident in the grounds of the mansion a year ago. Burglars broke into the English country mansion of rocker Ozzy Osbourne and his wife, Sharon according to police.The burglary woke the Osbournes, police said, and "a man" grabbed one of the intruders before the burglar broke free and jumped from a 10-meter-high, second-floor window. According to Jay Marose, the Osbourne family's spokesman in the United States, "Ozzy and Sharon were in the house. They were woken up by the incident eventually. My understanding is that the intruder was discovered in Sharon's dressing room," adjoining the main bedroom, Marose said. Also Ozzy Osbourne told The Sun that he got the man in a headlock and thought: "I could kill him to stop him hurting Sharon. But then I just let him drop. It was terrifying, I was looking to see if he had a knife. I can't get his staring eyes out of my mind." The intruder is believed to have been injured in the 10m fall. Among the jewellery taken were two gold wedding rings and a 24-carat sapphire ring.
