[sprite75]

Florida Man decided he needed an operating room table;

JULY 13--In a daring daytime heist, a man walked into a Florida hospital and wheeled out a $48,000 operating room table, according to police who Saturday arrested a suspect on burglary and grand theft charges.

Investigators allege that Lance Sayre, 52, entered Morton Plant Hospital in Clearwater last Sunday afternoon and went to  "the secured area of the Operating Room."

Once inside, Sayre "took custody of a Berchtold Operating Bed valued at $47,945.97" and wheeled it to the hospital's loading dock, where he loaded the bed into the back of a white van.

Cops reported that the defendant was "captured on video." An arrest affidavit does not indicate whether police recovered the stolen surgical table.
