“The hard drives contained water marked music, some unreleased music, footage plans for the show and past and future set list,” the police report previously obtained by PEOPLE read.
Grant and Blue also reported that clothing, designer sunglasses, two suitcases, laptops and a pair of AirPods Max headphones were taken from the car.
The hard drives have not been recovered, investigators told celebrity.land.
Parking garage cameras captured footage of the vehicle used during the theft, which was a 2025 Hyundai Elantra with Georgia plates, according to the incident report, per Atlanta News First. Authorities then called the vehicle’s owner, and she said she rented the car out to help pay her bills.
She said she rented it to her mother that morning, and that her uncle, Kelvin Evans, later called her to come pick him up. Evans allegedly told the vehicle’s owner that he would be using the car for five minutes, but instead took it for 30 minutes before returning it. He said he used it to go to a friend’s house, she alleged, per the outlet.
Upon his return, he allegedly told his niece to meet him at her aunt’s home on Hank Aaron Drive to drop off four black bags inside. The apartment complex’s surveillance footage documented Evans, his niece and a child removing the bags from the car. He then returned the car and placed a bag in the trunk and left on his bicycle, Atlanta News First reported, citing the incident report.
Evans is being held in the Fulton County Jail on a $20,000 bond, according to jail records. Per the records, he has an extensive arrest history that dates back to 2002. He has been arrested for alleged armed robbery, aggravated assault and entering an automobile with the intent to commit theft.
