Talk about a weird place to ditch a piano.

Kelowna resident Grace Freiheit says she came out to her parked truck at Kelowna General Hospital recently to find an abandoned piano sitting in the back.

''I don't know who put it there, but it must have been a least four men that got it in there. It had a tarp on it that said free, so it was very clear that somebody just couldn't get rid of it.''

Freiheit says her first thought was that someone was playing a prank on her.

''I was honestly so shocked. I was parked there for about six hours ... it took quite a long time to get it out because it was extremely heavy.''

So where is the piano now?

''It's sledge hammered to pieces on my front yard,'' she says.

''I'm assuming they just couldn't get rid of it and didn't want to have to take it to the dump,'' Freiheit added.
