And suddenly there was chaos on a San Diego freeway, when the doors of an armored truck opened and bags of banknotes fell on the road.
As soon as they realized what had happened on Friday morning, passing drivers stopped their vehicles, got down and started picking up the bills – mostly the one and $ 20 bills – while others were happily tossing them in the air.
But now, the FBI and the California Traffic Police are looking for those who did a lot of rubbish, warning them that it is a crime to steal state property. As a representative of the Traffic Police stated in the Fox 5 network, “Those who collected banknotes, we invite them to bring them to our offices immediately. I want to warn that there are enough videos to locate them. “
Authorities gave 48 hours to return the money, threatening to prosecute those who collected it. Two people have been arrested so far. The driver of the armored truck, which belongs to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, first tried to collect the banknotes, before realizing that the effort was in vain. “People have the misconception that whoever finds something belongs to them, that possession is nine-tenths of the law, but that is not the case,” lawyer Greg Wiseman told Fox 5.
