The Atlanta Falcons WR revealed his car was stolen in the Buckhead district of Atlanta on Saturday night at a gas station, but noted that “there was no violence” involved in the taking. What didn’t help was the fact that he left the car running as he jumped out. Even though he had the keys, the robbers were still able to take the car since it was a push-to-start.
“Car Stolen. No such thing as a safe part of town so be careful. Grateful there was no violence, they just got me at the gas station & rode out,” he tweeted.
