According to TMZBam claims that his Bentley was stolen yesterday (January 26) sometime in the evening. Around 1:30 a.m. this morning, the Bentley was spotted by San Diego officers as a group of men hopped in a drove off. A deputy pursued the vehicle before two men jumped out and fled. The driver of the Bentley once again gave chase and later, the vehicle was found crashed into the side of an unoccupied house.

Bam shared his side of the story, telling authorities that he was on his way to his "shaman's house" when he stopped to get gas and charge his phone at a Target in Vista, Calif. When he looked out of the window, he claims he saw his car was gone and police cars making their way to the scene.
