Overview

  • On July 8, two suitcases were stolen from a rented Jeep Wagoneer parked at Krog Street Market, including hard drives containing watermarked, unreleased Beyoncé tracks, show footage plans and set lists.
  • Investigators dusted the vehicle for fingerprints, examined parking‐deck surveillance footage and used Apple’s Find My service to trace stolen AirPods Max headphones.
  • On July 14, the Atlanta Police Department’s Larceny from Auto Unit obtained an arrest warrant for an unnamed suspect, though no arrest has been made.
  • Police have not recovered the stolen hard drives or other items—such as laptops, designer sunglasses and clothing—reported missing by Beyoncé’s choreographer and a dancer.
  • Beyoncé’s representatives have declined to comment on the ongoing investigation as she concludes her four-night residency at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
