Arrests Made Over Noah And The Whale Instrument Theft

October 5, 2009
Arrests Made Over Noah And The Whale Instrument TheftTwo men have been arrested on suspicion of theft after thousands of pounds worth of instruments were stolen from Noah And The Whale in Manchester.

The incident took place last Wednesday (September 30) following the band's performance at Club Academy.

The instruments, which included a Gibson Les Paul and Fender Telecaster, were taken from a trailer in a car park on Trinity Way.

Police recovered the trailer and a Gibson Goldtone GA-30 RVS Amp from a house in Salford on Friday (October 1), but the whereabouts of the other items is still unknown.

A 31-year-old and a 40-year-old man were arrested by police, who are now seeking a Ford Transit 190 van with the registration S144 NBV.

Officers are also looking for a black Daewoo Leganza, according to the BBC.

Other items stolen included a Fender 66 Precision Bass and a Ludwig silver/white oyster finish drum kit.
