The home shared by Black Veil Brides frontman Andy Biersack (aka Andy Black) and his wife Juliet Simms was broken into yesterday, Friday, May 25th, with a thief making off with a number of personal items and various Black Veil Brides memorabilia from Biersack‘s private collection.
Both Biersack and his wife were asleep at the time of the theft, which took place around 1am. Biersack took to Twitter to discuss the theft and share an image of the alleged thief captured by their home security system. He said of that:
We had a break in last night around 1 am. The thief took years worth of BVB memorabilia including my STWOF stage outfits, countless things i have collected and hoped to share with my family one day. If you see anything on a resale site please let me know ?? here he is: pic.twitter.com/iDktQjrNqY

I appreciate those of you who have been so kind and supportive in regards to the robbery at our home last night. The items the thief took are just material things and while they have nostalgic significance to me, at the end of the day the safety of my family is all that matters

Also for what it’s worth I do not wish the person who did this any ill will, I just hope that they can come to understand the massive privacy violation they have put us through and I hope that my memories and personal effects that were stolen end up in the right hands one day.

He came in through the garage and we were unaware of it initially. It wasn’t until we were notified by a neighbor mid day that a stranger was outside last night. Later we found storage torn open & nearly all of my BVB memorabilia/costumes were gone and my car trunk busted open https://t.co/GJYMKbfmxz

He did not take anything else, in watching the security tape footage (he covered up most of the cameras but 1) he was very specific in what he wanted and why he was there. He had 2 bags and filled them with jackets, pants, gloves, tour laminates, LPs etc.

We were asleep when the robbery itself went down/never heard anything. He was quick & efficient. He picked the lock to our gate outside & wore gardening gloves, i guess to not leave finger prints. It all sucks but again, I’d gladly lose all my stuff as long as my family is safe.
