Milwaukee County prosecutors say that three people have been arrested in connection with the theft of the "Ex-Lipiński" Stradivarius violin, FoxNews.com reported earlier today.
Two men, ages 36 and 41, and a 32-year-old woman were arrested by Milwaukee police on the morning of February 3. All three suspects are Milwaukee-area residents.
Assistant district attorney Kent Lovern told FoxNews that he couldn't reveal any information other than the arrests. A decision on whether or not to charge the suspects with a crime was unlikely to happen before Thursday.
Milwaukee police are questioning the three suspects, who can only be held until February 6 without charging them.
The "Ex-Lipiński" Stradivarius violin was stolen from Frank Almond, concertmaster of the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra, during an armed robbery on January 27.
