Brown said the thief arrived at 3:42 a.m. and had the car stolen by 3:45 a.m. "Your smooth with it dog... your fast on your feet."
"I'm gonna show you how fast I am on my feet," Brown quipped.
"If I find you... it's going to be what it's going to be," Brown said, while threatening to show up in the interrogation room once the thief is caught.
Brown said he knew where the car was "right now," but didn't offer how he knew that.
Though Brown shouted out Philly, the theft didn't happen in the city, Philadelphia police told NBC10.
As of late Monday morning, both of Brown's social media posts had been removed.
By about 3:40 p.m., as reported by NBC10's John Clark, Brown was informed by police that the vehicle had been recovered by the Camden County Police Department.

A person was arrested and charged with receiving stolen property, soliciting a prostitute and drug possession, Keashen said.
