Suspect charged with theft from Seger home

Andrew Douglas Thompson, 20, was arraigned Tuesday, June 26 in 48th District Court on a charge of larceny in a building after allegedly stealing property from Bob Seger’s Orchard Lake Village home last October, according to an Orchard Lake Police Department press release.

Items taken in the alleged larceny included a Reebok tennis shoe autographed by Shaquille O’Neil, an undisclosed amount of money, and a Rolex watch. Thompson’s bond was set at $7,500.

Thompson’s arrest is attributed to a persistent investigation by Detective Darrell Betts, according to the press release, which also states that a 1978 Gibson Les Paul Pro guitar that appears on the cover of Seger’s Greatest Hits album and was previously reported stolen mysterious turned up on the Seger’s dock in early May.
