Nas’ Calabasas’ home was broken into by two men who stole “two bags of belongings” while the rapper celebrated his album release party in NYC
The hunt is on for the two men who broke into rapper Nas’ home in Calabasas, California and made off with some of his belongings.
The break-in occurred early Saturday night, West Coast local time, as the Grammy winner, 49, was celebrating at his album release party in his hometown of New York City.
TMZ reports that Nas’ team only became aware of the crime after the thieves were caught leaving the house on a Ring security camera.
Victim: Legendary rapper Nas, 49, had his home in Calabasas, California broken into Saturday night as he attended his album release part across the country in New York City
The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department told the publication that the thieves were able to break into the home through a back door around 8:30 a.m. PT.
Researchers say the men ‘teared the case apart and left with at least two bags’ of stuff. So far, there’s no official word on what exactly those items were or how much they’re worth.
His team noticed the break-in captured on the security camera and immediately alerted the authorities.
Once Nas (born Nasir bin Olu Dara Jones), 49, flies back to Southern California, he’ll be able to do a good inventory check to determine what’s missing.
