Beans to surrender today

Beanie Sigel will surrender to police later this afternoon on charges of theft and unauthorized use of an automobile, because he allegedly failed to return a rental car he rented a few months ago.

According to police reports, Sigel - who's license is suspended - rented a 2007 Nissan Altima from Payless Rental Car service in Philadelphia on July 23.

The car was due back to Payless on August 13, but police claim Sigel never returned the car.

While Payless continued to charge Sigel's credit card for holding on to the car, the company reported the vehicle stolen on September 6.

"Apparently there was some misunderstanding over when the car was to be returned or whether or not payment was to continue being made from the credit card," Sigel's attorney Fortunato Perri, said.


"We're now working out a time for him to surrender this afternoon."

The Altima was returned to the dealership Friday evening, just as police went to arrest Sigel at his home outside of Philadelphia.

Sigel, born Dwight Grant, was in New York on business when the police went to his home, which neighbors said has been unoccupied for months.
