Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) are thanking a good Samaritan for returning a wallet with almost $1,800 cash, instead of rewarding himself with some money heading into the long weekend.
Police shared a photo on social media of a wallet with cash that was returned to the Prince Edward County OPP Detachment.
“Members of the Prince Edward County OPP Detachment want to send a BIG thank you to the kind citizen who located a wallet with almost $1,800 inside,” the OPP said, adding the wallet was found at a local gas station.
“Instead of rewarding himself with the contents, he attended the detachment to ensure it is returned to the owner.”
The wallet contained several $5, $20 and $100 bills.
Police say an officer was able to return the wallet to its owner.
