A 14-year-old boy fishing in Minnesota reeled in a wallet containing $2,000 in cash that had been dropped in the lake a year earlier. The teen returned the wallet to its owner, an Iowa farmer, stating that they didn't work hard for the money, so it belonged to him. The farmer expressed his gratitude by gifting the teen a custom-made cooler and treating his family to dinner.
An 8-year-old boy found a missing World Series ring belonging to a longtime worker at the Houston Astros' ballpark and gave it to his dad as a Father's Day present. The dad later realized it was the missing ring and returned it to its rightful owner, who had taken it off to wash his hands during a game. The man's last name is engraved on the side of the ring, which is not only reserved for players on the winning team but can also be given to employees and staff.
A man in Oregon threw fistfuls of $100 bills from his car window, causing other drivers to stop their vehicles to collect the cash. Colin Davis McCarthy dispersed $200,000 in total and told police he was in a good financial place and wanted to use the money to "bless others." The cash came from a bank account McCarthy shared with relatives, and his family has no recourse in terms of seeing it returned. McCarthy won't face any charges over the incident.
