According to police, the surveillance tape allegedly shows Rob sneaking into a woman's room at the On The Ave Hotel's 12th floor and coming out with what looks like a a purse or a pocket book.
The cardiologist told authorities that she was asleep in her room and then later noticed that her belongings had vanished when she woke up.
Police caught up to Rob at 11:30 a.m., roughly 7 hours and a half after the theft took place, but the rapper didn`t have the jewelry on him. Police then convinced him to call his accomplice, Damien Ashmeade who then brought the stolen jewelry to the 20th Precinct station house.
Black Rob spent time in jail in 2000 on charges of third degree criminal possession of a weapon and violating his probation. A warrant was issued for Rob's arrest after he failed to show up for a court appearance stemming from an incident in which undercover officers saw him pass a gun to an associate.
