Michael Pedicone, the drummer from My Chemical Romance has been fired after he was “caught stealing” from the band.
Guitarist Frank Lero released a statement today saying: “The relationship between My Chemical Romance and Michael Pedicone is over. He was caught red-handed stealing from the band and confessed to police after our show last night in Auburn, Washington.
"We are heartbroken and sick to our stomachs over this entire situation. The band has no intention of pressing charges or taking this matter any further than we have to. We just want him out of our lives."
Pedicone took to his Twitter page to try and explain himself, writing: “What happened is more complicated than it sounds but I did make a mistake. It was never my intention to hurt this band or all of you. It was an error in judgement based on a whole other situation that's way deeper but this does not define me."
My Chemical Romance have confirmed that their tour will continue when they've found a replacement for the drummer.
