desertrose Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Stolen from some auto shop.... Costa Mesa Police spokesman Lt. Ed Everett said Monday a call came into the station shortly after 9 a.m. on Saturday from the owner of an automotive business on the 1100 block of Victoria Street reporting the white, two-door vehicle with the license plate number BPN888, along with two electric guitars and an amp, stolen during a commercial burglary. Everett said it is believed the business owner had been given the vehicle by Armstrong or another member of Green Day, though his affiliation with the band is unclear. Described by police as having a leopard-print interior, the vehicle was inside the structure at the time of the burglary. The guitars stolen — a burnt orange Aria Pro II V and a champagne colored Roland G-707 — are both electric. The approximate value of the stolen items is estimated at $48,000, Everett reported. Although the incident is still under investigation, police said a roll up door was damaged in the commission of the burglary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerjeezus Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 I love how the cops chose to focus their release on the fact that they have no idea how the car even first appeared in the place it was stolen from 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacejunkie punk Posted February 11, 2022 Author Share Posted February 11, 2022 I get why a car would be in the shop but why would guitars and amps be there too? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes people can give tips even unwittingly - it could be just that someone mentioned it and it got to the wrong ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
