Burglars leave Keane in fear

January 24, 2007

KEANE have been left devastated after thieves broke into their offices and stole computers containing sensitive information.

TOM CHAPLIN, RICHARD HUGHES and TIM RICE-OXLEY fear personal details, including their mobile phone numbers and home addresses, could be in the wrong hands.

Police were called to the offices of their publicity company in London’s Oxford Circus on Monday after staff discovered the overnight break-in.

A source said: “It’s not yet known exactly what is missing but there was information about Keane held in the computer database.”

A Met police spokesman said: “The Priority Crime Unit at Marylebone is investigating. No arrests have been made.”

Last night the band ignored their problems and filled an obligation to record an acoustic set for Virgin Radio.

The gig will be broadcast on the station tomorrow.

On Friday Keane will be in Los Angeles to perform live.
