The sale takes place a day after law enforcement raided Diddy's Miami and Los Angeles homes amidst an ongoing trafficking investigation.

Aerial footage showed heavily armed federal agents wearing Homeland Security vests gathered in Diddy's backyard. Armoured tracks were also present, and officers could be seen entering and exiting Diddy's homes hours after the search began.

Two men, who were later identified as Diddy's sons, King Combs and Justin Combs, were detained outside the mansions during the raid.

However, the mogul's sons were released without charges after the search, which was in line with standard procedure.
