SPOKANE, Wash. (UPI) -- Law enforcement authorities in Spokane, Wash., don't think it was magic -- they think the disappearance of a grand piano was a brazen theft.
An employee at the Ridpath Hotel says the concert piano was in its usual place when she left for her dinner break around 11 p.m. Saturday, but she noticed the more than century-old Steinway Grand Piano was gone before 2 a.m. Sunday.
The thieves apparently knew what they were doing. The black Steinway weighs nearly 1,000 pounds and was worth at least $25,000, KXLY-TV, Spokane, reported.
The hotel is offering a reward for the instrument's return.
Full Version: Thieves roll away grand piano
Hope they get the piano back.
What! Oh my goodness.
That sound like a caper that was pulled at the hospital
One of those large screen flat TV's was removed from a patient's waiting room. It had to take this person a long time to get it down and get everything unhooked and he had to use a pry bar to remove all the bolts holding it in place. I am 5'7" and it was at least that high on the wall. One of the security cameras caught him actually dragging it out of the one parking lot and they found him in a bar trying to sell it. You can see the one side that was all scraped from draging it down the street. Did he get arrested and sent to jail. No all he got was a citation
