A man has been captured by police after he broke into the car of Beyoncé’s choreographer, stealing valuable unreleased tracks and other sensitive materials.
According to official police reports and jail records accessed by PEOPLE, authorities arrested Kelvin Evans on September 16. He has been charged with illegally entering a vehicle to commit theft.
This vehicle belonged to choreographer Christopher Grant and dancer Diandre Blue.
As noted by CNN, a distressing call was received by the police on July 8. The caller reported, “They have my computers, and it’s really, really important information in there. I work with someone who’s of high status, and I really need my computer and everything.”
Evans is suspected of stealing multiple items from the car parked at the Ayla apartment building, where it was left before a Cowboy Carter concert in Atlanta.
One of the stolen items included a flash drive with Beyoncé’s unreleased “watermarked music, performance footage plans, and both past and upcoming setlists.”
Additionally, Grant and Blue discovered other valuable items were missing, like clothing, designer sunglasses, two suitcases, laptops, and a pair of AirPods Max headphones.
Even though a suspect is under arrest, the location of the hard drives remains unknown.
Thief Has An Extensive Criminal Record
Kelvin Evans is currently detained in Fulton County Jail, with a bond set at $20,000. His criminal history is extensive, dating back to 2002.
According to documents, Evans has faced charges for armed robbery, aggravated assault, and attempting to commit theft by entering a vehicle.
As reported by Atlanta News First, surveillance footage from the garage captured the entire incident. Evans utilized a vehicle with Georgia plates belonging to his niece for the break-in.
The niece indicated that she rented the car to support her finances. On the morning of the incident, it was rented out to her mother. However, later that day, her uncle contacted her for a brief visit with a friend, claiming he would need it for only five minutes.
After committing the theft, Evans returned the car but not before asking his niece for help unloading four black bags. Security cameras recorded them unloading the vehicle alongside a small child.
In the end, he took one of the bags, secured it to his bicycle, and made his escape.
