Guitars stolen from North Philly School of Rock – NBC10 Philadelphia

Police have told a story that begins on a bitter note: Law enforcement is asking for help in identifying the person (or persons) responsible for the recent break-in at the School of Rock in North Philadelphia.

According to police, the incidents were captured on surveillance cameras and involved a break-in by a single person – or possibly two different people – at the school in the 400 block of N. 7th Street that occurred over two days, June 26 and 27.

Police posted videos of these incidents on social media.

According to police, the School of Rock was broken into over the course of these two days and those responsible are said to have stolen “numerous guitars and electronic devices.”

However, police are still trying to determine whether the same person was responsible for the crimes on both days or whether a different person was responsible for the break-in on both days.

The suspect in the June 26, 2024 incident was described by police as a man with a slim build and wearing dark clothing. In the next day’s incident, police similarly described the person believed to be responsible as a man with a slim build who wore a blue and white cap with “Viamericas” on the front and a blue and white baseball jersey with “New York” and the number 2 on the front and the number 2 on the back during the crime.

Anyone with information regarding these crimes is asked to contact the Philadelphia Police Department’s Central Detective Division at 215-686-3093/3094 or submit a tip to the police tip line at 215-686-TIPS (8477).
