UPDATED 7/15, 6:32 p.m. ET:

TMZ obtained audio of the 911 call reporting Bey's materials stolen.

"Someone broke into my car," the caller begins. "[T]hey stole my computer to everything, but it has a tracker on it."

"They have my computer, and it's really, really important information in there," he continues. "I work with someone who's of a high status, and I really need my computer and everything.

See original story below.

Beyoncé's unreleased music, tour plans, and other secret materials were stolen last week in Atlanta out of a car belonging to her choreographer and one of her dancers.

Atlanta's WSB reports that that theft took place on July 8 in a parking deck near Krog Street Market. Choreographer Christopher Grant and dancer Diandre Blue discovered that two suitcases had been stolen from a Jeep they were renting, two days in advance of the first of Bey's four shows at ATL's Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

"Mr. Grant advised he was also carrying some personal sensitive information for the musician Beyoncé,” a police incident report reads. "...[H]ard drives for her upcoming show in Atlanta were stolen also. The hard drives contained water marked music, some un-released music, footage plans for the show and past and future set lists."

In addition to Bey's secrets, clothes, laptops, sunglasses, and a pair of AirPods Max headphones were also taken. It was that last item which gave investigators some clues, as they used Apple's "Find My" feature in an attempt to locate the headphones.

Police are reported to have questioned someone regarding the theft — a person who was in a car "moving at the same time as the tracking on the AirPods." Despite the stop, no one has yet been charged.

According to WSB-TV's Michael Seiden, a big breakthrough in the investigation came on Monday (July 14), when an arrest warrant was issued for a suspect. The name of the suspect is not yet known.

The last of Bey's four Atlanta shows takes place on Monday. After that, her Cowboy Carter Tour closes out with two shows in Las Vegas.
