Police in northeast Ohio say a couple who lost $12,000 caught a lucky break this week when the money was found and returned.
A 63-year-old Akron woman told police she found a tan, cloth bag of money in the middle of a road while walking with her husband Wednesday night. Police used other paperwork in the bag to track down a couple in nearby Springfield Township who planned to use the money to buy a house out of state.
The Akron woman, who asked to remain anonymous, tells the Akron Beacon Journal her father was a minister who taught her to do the right thing and says that's what she did.
It wasn't clear exactly how the money was lost. Akron police say such a recovery is rare.
