TMZ called the number and a woman answered. She said she did not know Holder last June but subsequently did get to know him. That didn’t make a lot of sense because it appears the car is registered to either her or someone in her family … yet Holder’s name was on the invoice. She told us it was her car.
The woman then said she subsequently began a friendship with Holder and she was with him Sunday when they drove to Nipsey’s clothing store near the Crenshaw District of L.A. She claims she was waiting for him in the alley when he went over to the clothing store. She also claims she didn’t know why he was going there and he didn’t say anything when he came back to the car.
TMZ are in no way vouching for the veracity of her version of Sunday’s events … it’s just what she said on the phone. The woman told us she was going to call police to “clear my name.”
TMZ says they contacted detectives on the case who said they have not yet received such a call.
The woman hung up on us before answering additional questions. Still no word on the whereabouts of Eric Holder.
