The alleged arson of Kid Cudi’s car, as detailed in singer Casandra “Cassie” Ventura’s lawsuit against Sean Combs and corroborated by a Los Angeles City Fire Department report obtained by Rolling Stone, has brought to light a disturbing incident involving the destruction of Cudi’s Porsche.

The report reveals that on January 9, 2012, an incendiary device was used to set fire to Kid Cudi’s Porsche at a Los Angeles address linked to him. The fire, reported at 10:53 a.m., caused an estimated $10,000 in damage, with the cause listed as “intentional.”
Despite the report confirming the arson, no suspects were mentioned in the incident that occurred in broad daylight. An official from the fire department in 2012 recalls responding to the call and interacting with a woman at the scene. The luxury vehicle was inspected and found not to be fully engulfed upon arrival.
Ventura’s lawsuit, filed in November, alleged that Combs threatened to blow up Cudi’s car after learning of her relationship with the artist. Cudi later confirmed the explosion of his car, validating Ventura’s claims. However, Combs’ lawyer denies any involvement in the incident.
Prosecutors, in a recent indictment against Combs, hinted at his alleged role in the arson without directly implicating Mescudi. The court filings suggest that co-conspirators acting on Combs’ behalf set fire to an unidentified person’s vehicle in early January 2012, with witnesses prepared to testify about Combs’ involvement.

The fire report did not specify the make and model of the Porsche, but Cudi’s affinity for the brand is well-known. He showcased his 2011 Porsche 911 Turbo S in a YouTube video and released a song titled “Porsche Topless” as part of his album Insano.
Combs, facing legal troubles unrelated to the arson incident, has denied the charges against him. As he awaits trial, additional civil lawsuits alleging sexual misconduct have been filed against him, including one involving drugging and assault.
