The north London home of Amy Winehouse was burglarized, her representative Chris Goodman confirmed on Friday, January 30. The troubled singer was enjoying her vacation on the Caribbean island of St. Lucia when the robbery took place early Thursday morning, January 29.
A spokesman for the Metropolitan Police would not name the items which were stolen by the thieves. However, it has been claimed that a set of valuable guitars and recording equipment were taken.
Amy's neighbors who noticed the burglary taking place called the police, but the burglars already escaped before the police could arrive. Authorities who arrived at the scene later found out that the front door of Amy's house was kicked in.
"Amy is upset, of course. But everything can be replaced," Chris told People. "From her point of view, her favorite guitar is with her in St. Lucia. It was a special present, given her by [record label] Universal for winning the Grammy awards last year."
At time of writing, no arrests have been made. A spokesman for the Metropolitan Police meanwhile confirmed, "We are investigating a burglary at an address in Camden at around 4 A.M. on Thursday. Inquiries are continuing."
