Orange Park police on Friday posted an alert naming a suspect in the case as event organizers find ways to raise funds that could have come from selling items like a stolen 1957 Goldtop Les Paul guitar signed by Gregg Allman, Brian Howe, Butch Trucks and others. The department said an arrest warrant for grand theft has been issued for 38-year-old William James Walker of the Jacksonville area.
