MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (WFLA) – A man has been arrested for allegedly stealing a luxury vehicle worth nearly $2 million from a Miami Beach hotel.
According to NBC affiliate WTVJ, all the thefts were captured on camera, and a suspect was shown raw in the Valet key room in the Setai Hotel parking garage last July.

The suspect, 24-year-old Gregory Yearty Jr., appears to have tried to avoid detection when he entered the room before stealing keys to four high-end vehicles. WTVJ said these vehicles included the Rolls-Royce and Mercedes-Benz G-Class, bringing together a total of nearly $2 million.
Miami Beach police said a Black Cadillac escalade entered the parking lot following one of the stolen vehicles. Two men then escaped from the escalade and ousted them with two vehicles, WTVJ reported.
A few hours later, he reportedly returned to the parking lot just before 6am the year, and stole two more cars.
During the year, he was arrested on four counts of grand theft. WTVJ said the suspect had an accomplice, but no other arrests appear to have been made.
