Beyonce’s choreographer, Christopher Grant, and dancer Diandre Blue told police they parked their rental car, a 2024 Jeep Wagoneer, at a food hall in the city at about 8:09 p.m. The pair returned to the car just after 9 p.m. to discover the trunk window had been damaged and two suitcases had been taken.
Grant told officers that “he was also carrying some personal sensitive information for the musician Beyonce,” the police incident report stated.
The report identifies a possible suspect vehicle as a 2025 red Hyundai Elantra. Responding officers were able to identify “light prints” at the scene, and security cameras in the parking lot captured the incident, according to the report.
Officers canvassed an area where the stolen laptop and headphones were tracked by using the devices’ location services, the report stated.
Beyonce kicked off her highly-anticipated tour in late April, taking her Grammy-winning album, Cowboy Carter, to stadiums in the U.S. and Europe. The singer will end her tour with two Las Vegas nights in late July.
