The keys to a CBS Atlanta affiliate rental car were stolen late Sunday outside R. Kelly’s studio on the Near West Side, according to a reporter at the station.

At 11:50 p.m., a male got out of a black SUV and stole the keys from a 2018 Chevy Malibu in the 200 block of North Justine, according to Chicago police. The SUV fled south on Justine Street, police said. 

Carlson’s tweet said the thief knew the rental car belonged to the media. 

No one is in custody.
