Record-breaking Jeopardy! contestant Amy Schneider fell victim an armed robbery close to her Oakland home, which saw her phone, credit cards and ID stolen.

Schneider, 42, revealed she'd suffered upsetting crime on her Twitter account on Monday, shortly before she was seen on TV later on the same evening scoring her 24th straight victory on the iconic game show.

'Hi all! So, first off: I'm fine,' she tweeted earlier on Monday. 'But I got robbed yesterday, lost my ID, credit cards, and phone. I then couldn't really sleep last night, and have been dragging myself around all day trying to replace everything.'

Schneider is transgender, although there is not yet any suggestion that the robbery in crime-ridden Oakland was hate-related, and no arrests have been made. It is also unclear if she was targeted because of her fame and burgeoning bank balance.

In a second tweet, Schneider wrote that she doubted whether she'll 'start writing tonight's game thread', where she updates fans on what went on behind the scenes, because of the robbery.

'And if I keep winning, it may take a bit for me to get caught up,' she added. 'Thanks for your patience!'

Schneider was referring to her habit of sharing her highs and lows of each game via threads after games with her 52k followers. However, she said the robbery would likely prevent her from finishing up a recap of Monday night's game when she earned her 24th victory and increased her earnings to $897,600, the fourth biggest amount in the show's regular-season's play.

Oakland Police shared a statement today that officers were investigating an armed robbery that took place on Lenox Avenue on Sunday shortly after 3.30p.m, close to Schneider's home. They didn't name Schneider as the victim, but both the San Francisco Chronicle and NBC

At least sprayed their eyes blind with her hair spray.
Did they take her pearls?

This isn’t another Jussie Smollet case is it?

And isn’t it taped in L.A.? Not the Bay Area?

It wouldn’t be beneath a game show to give the answers to someone who they thought needed a little “social justicing” and it would be a shame to find that is the case.

More valuable than all his Jeopardy! winnings was his membership card in the Meat Conglomerate. These gristly thieves must be stopped!

All the ugliest gay men become transgender, because it’s the only way they can get anyone to look at them at all for any reason.

There was a game show in the 1950’s that was cancelled after a scandal broke pertaining to the show being fixed. I think Robert Redford was in the movie about that. I wouldn’t surprise me if they did that.

That is terrible, but I wouldn’t be surprised.

See, this is not the only time that rascals have behaved poorly.

Isn't all robbery and burglary hate-related? They hate that you have possessions that they don't, and because of that hate they conspire to take it away from you.

She / he should use some of the winnings to move to a better city.

Oakland is not some place I would want to live.
