Chuck Berry's guitar stolen, three arrested
(CBS/AP) Three men have been arrested for allegedly stealing an electric guitar and other items from the suburban St. Louis home of rock 'n' roll legend Chuck Berry.
The other items stolen include power washers and dozens of used car batteries, along with part of a fence, according to The St. Charles County Sheriff's Department.
Officials say it isn't clear when the items were taken or whether they were all taken at once. Deputies say the stolen items have not yet been recovered. Formal charges have not been filed.
Berry was one of rock's pioneers with early hits that included "Roll Over Beethoven," "Sweet Little Sixteen" and "Johnny B. Goode." The 85-year-old singer still performs monthly at a club in University City, another St. Louis suburb.
