Call me cynical, but I think this is a publicity stunt of some sort.

Lee, the owner of Andertons, just happened to have a coat on (or took the time to put his coat on) before he went outside to catch a "thief" and Chappers just happened to be there to shoot a video?   

Tbf both Rabea and Pete have posted Instagram stories today showing them all filming videos at Andertons 

Also given that Lee publicly supported the guys at Peach recently I doubt he’d do something a daft as too spoof a theft

From comments on Facebook it seems genuine. Rob didn't say he took the picture.

Err, yes he did: "here is a still from a video I just shot...".

Maybe they were outside together having a fag?

Ha ha I misread that .. I thought they were shooting a video.

As others have said given the recent thefts of guitars I doubt Lee would pull a stunt ..

Is it so hard to believe Rob simply filmed it on his mobile so they had a face for the police and on the off chance the thief got violent?

A Roland Cube, you say?

Shoplifting standards have plummeted in the last few years.

The amps at Andertons are right at the back of the shop. This guy must have walked right though the store, past the 40 shop assistants and out the front doors.

It's no shock the thief tried to escape on foot, lord knows you can't park within 5 miles of the place

Haha noooo! 

Sorry didnt mean it to sound like I’m a bad guy. Apologies.

In this day and age I'm surprised the thief didn't spot an opportunity, say he's put his back out carrying the amp, and sue Andertons for damages.
