SACRAMENTO, May 1 (UPI) -- The attorney general of California said being the state's "top cop" did not deter thieves from swiping two of the tires from his car.

Attorney General Jerry Brown said someone took the passenger-side tires from his Toyota Camry Hybrid while it was parked in front of his home April 24, the Los Angeles Times reported Friday.

Scott Gerber, a spokesman for Brown, said the theft was reported to police.

"Even though I am California's 'top cop,' 2 of my tires were stolen," Brown wrote in a posting on his Facebook page. "No matter. I got 2 new ones and I'm rolling again!"
