Rapper Young Dolph has $500G in jewelry stolen while eating at Cracker Barrel

Rapper Young Dolph's car was broken into while he ate at a metro Atlanta Cracker Barrel last week, and thieves made off with roughly $500,000 of jewelry and other belongings.

The Memphis artist, born Adolph Thornton, told police the thieves smashed the window of his custom camouflage Mercedes-Benz G-Class SUV in the restaurant's parking lot on Wednesday. They made off with a Richard Mille watch worth $230,000, a Patek Phillipe watch costing approximately $85,000 and two diamond chains worth a respective $57,000 and $27,000.

Police told WSB-TV that the case was "unusual in a number of ways," because surveillance footage shows the thieves approaching Thornton's car three separate times. The first time, police say it's possible that they entered the car without vandalizing it. The third time, they smashed the window and made off with the pricey items, escaping in a silver car.

"No way he’d have it done at a Cracker Barrel if it were an insurance scheme. He’s going to get ribbed for the rest of his life over this."

He planned to be at Subway but a hoax was already done there.

I’ve never heard of the guy but really, who in their right mind leaves 100 grand worth of junk in the car at Cracker Barrel or anywhere else for that matter?

I also do not think his stuff was worth that much.

First time I heard of a $230,000 watch. I don't think a diamond-studded, solid-gold Rolex costs that much.

A & B.

Bold robbery of the insurance company.
Probably winds up that it wasn’t really clever.

Isn’t that the “slider” stance for thieves targeting the goods in cars?

My understanding that usually the bling is the property of the record company and they just lend it out to their rappers to make it look like they are rich.

If that's the case here, maybe he set it up such that they will share the money they get from selling the stolen jewelry.

There still is the outside possibily that it actually was stolen by thugs, or, should I say, other thugs.
