In July, someone smashed the rear window of an SUV parked in the American city of Atlanta. Behind the window lay, among other things, bags with computers and hard drives that the thief took with them from the scene.

The car had been rented by Beyoncé's choreographer – and on the hard drives were both concert plans and unreleased music belonging to the world star.

Now it is clear that the police have arrested a man suspected of the break-in. But the hard drives are still not reported to have been found, according to reports from, among others, Variety.

In the emergency call to the police after the theft, the material was described as very important.

They have my computers, and there is really very important information on them, says an unknown person in an emergency call that CNN has access to.

I work with someone who has a high status, and I really need my computer.

The break-in occurred days before Beyoncé's concert in the city, during the "Cowboy Carter" tour.
