[quote:3mxaeq71]Jeff Ament is attacked by masked men
Pearl Jam bassist Jeff Ament was mugged recently outside an Atlanta recording studio where the band are working on their new album.

Ament and another man identified as Mark Anthony Smith had pulled up in a jeep to the Southern Tracks recording studio when three masked men came out of the woods and attacked them, reports the Associated Press.

Police said that the men smashed the jeep's windows and stole a Blackberry and two computers. They also demanded money. When Ament tried to run, the muggers reportedly knocked him to the ground and stole his passport. He was later treated by paramedics for head injuries.

The masked men ended up getting away with $3,000 in cash as well as computers and other equipment worth approximately $4,000. The incident was captured on video by surveillance cameras but no one has yet been arrested.[/quote:3mxaeq71]

[quote:3mxaeq71]According to a police report obtained by Rolling Stone, thieves attacked and robbed Pearl Jam bassist Jeff Ament outside an Atlanta recording studio recently. The band had been working on a new album with producer Brendan O'Brien at the studio, Southern Tracks.

Rolling Stone reports that on the afternoon of April 27, Ament and a "band employee" were pulling up outside the studio when three masked men emerged from the nearby woods and threatened them with knives. They broke the windows of Ament's Jeep and demanded money, making off with $3,000 in cash and $4,320 worth of goods. They also knocked Ament to the ground and assaulted him, giving him a head laceration that emergency medical technicians had to treat. Even though security cameras caught everything on tape, no arrests have been made yet. Thanks to Noel Wurst for the tip.
