On Monday, January 13, officials at the Cantacuzino Hospital in Bucharest alerted police that a man stole three amputated legs from the storage area. While two were later found, the third is still missing.
The incident took place three days prior, on January 10, and was captured by surveillance cameras. Images published by Euronews Romania show a man whose face is hidden, wearing a jacket and sports pants, entering the storage area designated for medical waste and then exiting with a yellow bag, in addition to the black bag he was already carrying. The individual later abandoned one of the bags.
Investigators have opened a criminal case for qualified theft and are searching for the suspect. They are also trying to determine the whereabouts of the third leg. Two have already been found: one within the hospital premises near the medical waste area and another on a street near the medical facility.

The hospital, which was fined RON 4,400 (EUR 885) by the authorities for mishandling the legs, has started its own investigation alongside that of the police.
Sounds like he’s hot footed it out of the area.
Have they checked the local kebab shops?
I dunno, maybe it’s a cunning plan to fake his own death. He’s just gotta collect enough body parts, crudely stitch them together then lock ‘himself’ in his car, inside his garage, filled with petrol. Torch it until there is nothing but bones and ash and leave a note in the kitchen.
His ego got the better of him though, thinking he needs a third leg.
That an elephant’s leg. Unless you are saying one of them is made from a number or human legs…
All I’m saying is I doubt the prices at the meat suppliers are going down. Sometimes you need to save a few pennies, and when an opportunity presents itself….
