Police reports give detail to why Lions head coach Dan Campbell and family moved

Last week, news broke that Lions head coach Dan Campbell and his family sold their home in Bloomfield Hills and had moved to a more private residence. As expected when asked about it during his press conference last Friday, Campbell didn't want to talk about it.

"Man, I don't, no disrespect -- I don't even want to go there, with any of it," Campbell said. "It's all good and I've got a job to do. My primary job here is to coach this team and have them prepared every week. I've got to do my job and that's the sole focus."

The original reporting from Crain's Detroit Business said Campbell and his family had filed some police reports due to security concerns. After last year's loss to the Dallas Cowboys, Jay Glazer of FOX Sports reported someone sent contractors to Campbell's house after his address had been leaked. Fox 2 in Detroit reported the filing of police reports by Campbell after the NFC Championship Game loss to the San Francisco 49ers.

Details of police reports filed by Dan Campbell and family

The Detroit News and the Detroit Free Press have done some excellent reporting on the details of the police reports filed by Campbell's family, with the News reporting "at least four police reports" filed involving Campbell's home between New Year's Eve 2023 and days after the loss to the 49ers.

Lions and NFL security got involved, uncovering the source of the issues at the Campbells' home after the NFC Championship Game loss.

After the Jan. 28 loss to the 49ers, someone posted the Campbell family address on Snapchat and called the coach a "dumb f---." The post was shared by one of the daughter's male classmates, who "found humor" in it. According to the report, the classmate and his friends later drove to the Campbells' residence, parked on the street and were "yelling not nice things toward the house" before leaving.

Dan and Holly Campbell were in the Bay Area for that game. Their daughter and her boyfriend were at the house as angry fans showed up. They advised their daughter to leave the house with her boyfriend.

The classmate who shared the Snapchat post was questioned by investigators, but Holly Campbell was told the incident did not meet the standard to file criminal charges. Mrs. Campbell of course than had a primary concern.

"Holly's only concern is that their address is out there now, and she fears next season people will know when her husband is out of town and try to take advantage of that," the investigator wrote, according to the Detroit News.

The Campbell's have reportedly not received any harassment at their new home, in an undisclosed location.
