Two men charged in Gregg Allman burglary
Burglars stole silver dollar collection, two
safes of gold coins and more
SAVANNAH, Ga. - Gregg Allman almost had a few less silver
dollars after someone broke into his southeast Georgia
home and stole a coin collection, knives and unreleased
concert recordings, police said.
The Allman Brothers Band singer and keyboardist, 61, was
out of town when burglars broke into his home in Richmond
Hill, 20 miles south of Savannah.
"He's upgrading his security," detective Mickey Sands of
the Bryan County Sheriff's Department said Thursday.
Sands said the burglars took a case containing Allman's
collection of 19th-century silver dollars and two safes
filled with gold coins, personal papers, collectible
knives and several tapes of unreleased recordings.
Investigators recovered all of Allman's belongings
except a handgun.
Craig Matthew George, 27, and Brittney Ann Sahlberg,
19, both of Richmond Hill, were charged two days
after the Dec. 27 burglary. Sands said Allman knew
them but would not say how.
George and Sahlberg have been released from jail on
bond. Neither had a listed phone number in Richmond
Hill. Sands and District Attorney Tom Durden said
they did not know if either has an attorney.
Allman was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of
Fame with the Allman Brothers Band in 1995. Songs
he's written include "Midnight Rider," "Whipping
Post" and "Melissa."
