authorities saying they traced that black Escalade back to Bad Boys Records, which is Diddy's company. Then later, Kid Cudi said his Porsche got blown up. Somebody cut a huge hole in the top of it and threw a Molotov cocktail in there. And today we've seen an L.A. fire – a department guy testifying to what kind of Molotov cocktail it was. Exactly what kind, it was a malt liquor bottle.

I mean, you can't make it up. It's just like the details that have come out. Let me get it exactly. What kind of bottle was used? Jimenez, old English 800 malt liquor.
