The incident occurred Wednesday afternoon at a medical building in Westbury, New York, according to the Nassau County Police Department.

Officers responded to Nassau Open MRI following a 911 call and were informed that the man "entered an unauthorized Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) room while the scan was in progress," the police department said in a statement.

"Pure gold" as in "not just gold plated something", of course. And 22k is actually rare for jewellry, most of it is 10, 14, and 18k. If you watch Sreetips, it seems to be distributed in an about ratio of 2:2:1.
