<h3 style="text-align: center;">Finesse2Tymes Wanted For Not Returning Rental Car Despite Promising To Do So</h3>
<p>The warrant report claims a man who went by <strong>Ronald Bell</strong> rented an Infiniti QX80 SUV on Feb. 28, from an Enterprise Rent-A-Car location within the city, according to <a href="https://abc13.com/memphis-rapper-wanted-finesse2tyme-car-theft-in-houston-enterprise-rentals/13523115/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>ABC 13</strong></a>.</p>
<p>It was supposed to be returned on Mar. 10. However, the vehicle was never dropped off.</p>
<p>Enterprise eventually sent Bell a 10-day demand letter to return the SUV. On April 20, an Enterprise employee reportedly spoke with Bell over the phone, court records show.</p>
<p class="Ekqk yuUa lqtk TjIX aGjv">Bell said the rapper &#8220;Finesse2Tymes&#8221; was driving the vehicle and proceeded to call him on a three-way call with the employee that same day, according to <a href="https://www.click2houston.com/news/local/2023/07/20/memphis-rapper-finesse2tymes-wanted-for-allegedly-not-returning-rental-car-to-a-houston-enterprise/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Click2Houston</strong></a>.</p>
<p>2Tymes reportedly told the Enterprise employee that his Zelle account was &#8220;tied up.&#8221; However, he did say he would send &#8220;some&#8221; money and return the SUV at an Enterprise location in Atlanta the next day (Apr. 21).</p>
<p>It was listed as stolen on Apr. 24 after the rapper failed to do so, per Click2Houston.</p>

<p>Authorities eventually ran the SUV&#8217;s license via a plate reading database. They quickly learned that the vehicle had been driving in the Houston Area on Apr. 24.</p>
<p>It was ultimately located outside of a recording studio within city limits, according to ABC 13. A woman operating the SUV told investigators she &#8220;got the keys from her boss,&#8221; Finesse2Tymes.</p>
<p>A day later, Houston police found Finesse2Tymes, whose real name is<strong> Ricky Leshay Hampton</strong>, to be unlawfully “exercising control over property, namely, a motor vehicle” that was “of the value of at least $30,000 and less than $150,000” in Harris County.</p>
