Randy Kohrs Band equipment stolen
The equipment was stolen out of the Sleep Inn parking lot in Obetz, Ohio between 3:30 a.m. and 5 a.m.
"This was probably the only time we've ever left our stuff in the van like that, and we only did so because we were going to be in the hotel only a short time before heading home," said Ashley Brown of Kohrs' band via email.
"They ripped the lock completely out of the driver's side door to get in. Luckily, the banjo player, Mike Sumner, was riding with his girlfriend and had his banjo in her car instead.
Oddly enough, none of the drums or related gear were stolen," Brown wrote.
