Millions of dollars in jewellery was stolen from a tour bus during Drake and Future’s Summer Sixteen tour stop in Phoenix this week. The AP reported that Arizona State University campus police picked him up early Wednesday morning for trespassing. The cops were able to pinpoint the 21-year-old as the main suspect in the heist thanks to surveillance footage from the Talking Stick Resort Arena. The baubles snatched in the burglary actually belong to his tour DJ, Future The Prince (not to be confused with Future, the artist who performed with Drake throughout the tour).
Police say King entered the bus at Talking Stick Resort Arena on Tuesday night.
Police did not say who owned the jewelry, but confirmed it’s not Drake’s.
Officers subsequently found the stolen jewels and returned them to Drake and Future, and booked King into Maricopa County Jail on a burglary charge. Now, though, both of them can rest easier knowing that authorities think they have the thief and may have recovered all the jewelry taken.
According to police, King had done contract work with local venues in the past. A representative for Future the Prince declined comment on the theft case.
