Two employees of one of Europe’s largest music equipment retailers have appeared in court charged with stealing stock from its Yorkshire warehouse.
Gear4Music, which sells drum kits, guitars, string instruments and sound systems online, has its head office and distribution centre at Clifton Moor Gate in York. Former manager Peter Greenwood, 31, and warehouse worker Jason Archer, 51, both appeared at York Magistrates Court on Thursday charged with theft by employee and possession of criminal property.
Bowley, of Rawcliffe, denied possessing over £15,000 in criminal property, and Starkey, who lives with Greenwood, did not indicate a plea to the charge that she possessed £290. All four will appear again at York Crown Court in April, with Greenwood only to be sentenced when a trial involving the other defendants has concluded. Archer’s solicitor said his client denied dishonesty, saying he had not removed any items from the Gear4Music warehouse without authorisation.
