The car, rented by Grant, was parked in a space at Krog Street Market in Atlanta when certain items were stolen. A few more dancers also accompanied Grant, and they arrived at the place at 8:09 p.m., as stated in a police report acquired by People magazine (July 14).

However, Grant and his dancers witnessed, around an hour later (around 9:10 p.m.), that two suitcases inside the car were missing and the trunk window was damaged.
