Off Duty CHP Finds 120k On The Street

A man’s life savings have been recovered after an off-duty California Highway Patrol sergeant found over 120k on the street. 

While driving in a personal car on a Concord, CA street , the sergeant had to swerve around two bank deposit bags in the roadway to avoid hitting them, according to the CHP. The sergeant made a U-turn and went to retrieve the two bags, which had tire marks on them, and looked inside to find “a lot of cash,” My wife always make a comment when we drive by bags on the road, "It could be a bag of cash". I always say 'No it's not". Boy I was wrong this time.

“First I thought it was one of those shows – what would you do? Someone would come out and ask me what would you do,” the officer said. Police were later able to locate the owner of the lost cash and returned the money to him. In a prepared statement, the sergeant said returning the money was simply “the right thing to do.”
