Some of Beyoncé’s unreleased music and set lists stolen from choreographer’s car
New reports from Atlanta police say some of Beyoncé’s unreleased work has been stolen.
According to the “Today” show, hard drives containing some of Beyoncé’s unreleased music were taken from one of her choreographer’s rental cars in Atlanta.
In addition to unreleased music, the “Today” show reports that the hard drives also contained unused footage plans and “future and past set lists.” The accused break-in and theft took place on Tuesday, July 8.
Beyoncé has not yet publicly responded to the reports.
WSB-TV obtained the 911 to Atlanta police detailing the alleged theft. According to the station’s Michael Seiden, Christopher Grant made the 911 call, reporting that his Jeep Wagoneer was broken into at 99 Krog Street.
Grant told police that he parked the Jeep Wagoneer on the parking deck at the Krog Street Market around 8:09 p.m., WSB-TV reports. They later discovered the back lift gate of the Jeep was broken into and the two suitcases in the back were stolen, according to the outlet, citing police.
“Someone broke into my car,” Grant told the dispatcher, according to WSB-TV. “I was parked in a garage while I went to a restaurant. But they stole, like my computers and everything, but it has the tracker on it.”
“They have my computers, and it’s really, really important information in there,” Grant continued. “I work with someone who’s like of a high status, and I really need the, um, my computer and everything.”
In an incident report obtained by WSB-TV, a responding officer “conducted a suspicious stop in the area, due to the information that was relayed to me. There were several cars in the area also that the AirPods were pinging to in that area also. After further investigation, a silver (redacted), which had traveled into zone 5 was moving at the same time as the tracking on the AirPods.”
WSB-TV reports that an arrest warrant has been issued, but no arrests have been made.
Beyoncé and her team were in Atlanta on July 10 through July 14 where she performed four shows for her “Cowboy Carter” tour at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
