Ludacris is showing off a sense of humor after having his car stolen during an ATM stop in Atlanta last month.
Ludacris, the rapper and actor whose real name is Chris Bridges, reported his Mercedes-Benz stolen on January 25. He told authorities that afternoon that while he was at an ATM in Midtown, he heard someone speed away in his vehicle. He said he didn't get a good look at the suspect.
Police electronically tracked the car’s possible location in Northwest Atlanta, where they found some items — including a black Louis Vuitton bag, an iPad and a laptop — that belonged to the rapper, but did not recover the car there. Ultimately, the Mercedes-Benz was recovered, with no one in it, at the 1270 Spring Street parking deck in Midtown Atlanta and returned to Ludacris by 10 p.m. the same day, 11Alive reported at that time.
On Tuesday (February 2), Ludacris took to Instagram to crack a few jokes about the experience with the help of comedians and actors DeWayne Colley and Desi Banks.
Colley and Banks instructed Ludacris to cover his eyes and applauded when they gave him his new set of wheels: a red Radio Flyer wagon (he even gets a driver).
Watch Ludacris go for a cruise in his new wagon on Instagram.
