AceShowbiz - Three men have been arrested on suspicion of stealing $3 million (£2.1 million) in cash and jewellery from a New Jersey business owned by 50 Cent.
Travis Villalobos, Richard Murphy, and Matthew Gale stand accused of breaking into an apartment building leased for one of the "In Da Club" hitmaker's companies in early 2021, and making off with a haul of cash and valuables.
According to prosecutors, Cliffside Park Police Department officials were called to the location on the eve of the heist, when they recovered a stolen vehicle, which was eventually tied to the burglary, thanks to surveillance footage.
About the incident, prosecutors was quoted by TMZ as saying, "At the time the suspects were in the unit, police drove by but did not realize the individuals were still inside." They added, "The entire matter was caught on surveillance cameras."
The three males have since been arrested and charged with burglary, conspiracy to commit burglary, receiving stolen property, and criminal mischief. The arrest came after around six months of investigation.
Fiddy has yet to comment on the arrest as he seemed to be focusing himself on his work. Just days earlier, the rapper whose real name is Curtis Jackson shared his thought on his potential involvement in Pop Smoke's next posthumous album.
In a chat with Kris Kaylin, Fiddy spilled, "Steven [Victor] was originally Pop's manager and the label person that he was signed to. He talked to me about the new record, and I'm not sure if I'll participate with this, that record." He added, "I just wanted to make sure that his record did what it was supposed to."
