Usher Robbed of $1 Million in Jewelry

Usher says that on December 14 he was robbed of $1,000,000 worth of jewelry from the back of his car. The incident occurred in Atlanta while Usher was inside an AT&T store. Robbers broke into his GMC Yukon and grabbed whatever they could.


According to an Atlanta police report (and TMZ.com), Usher is claiming several items were missing, including an array of Christmas gifts and personal belongings. He claims that among the stolen items were $50,000 worth of furs, a computer and more than a million dollars worth of jewelry, which he happened to have in his care at the time. An AT&T employee says that she witnessed the crime taking place, but she refused to comment further to reporters.
