Tom Petty’s family has regained possession of some property that was stolen from the late singer’s estate.

Petty departed this world with a large stash of guitars and unreleased music.

TMZ reports that a man broke into a storage unit that housed Petty’s valuables.

Among the stolen items was $100,000 worth of guitars and unreleased music.

Police are not saying if Petty’s property at the San Fernando storage facility was intentionally targeted.

It may have been a coincidence.

TMZ reports that some hard drives containing Petty’s music have been recovered.

There are stolen Tom Petty guitars out there, TMZ says.

A suspect is in custody.
