Tinchy Stryder was mugged in a nightclub car park in the early hours of yesterday morning.

The minuscule chart topper – real name Kwasi Danquah – was allegedly robbed of £10,000 worth of jewellery at around 1.45am at the club in Ilford, Essex, reports The Sun.

Luckily his entourage confronted the two alleged muggers and managed to get the jewellery back before around 30 police arrived on the scene.

A spokesperson for the star added: "Tinchy and his entourage were not involved in any fighting."

One man has been formally charged by police with a public order offence.
