Should have kept the money

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) -- A New Jersey man was left wondering where his $3,000 cash had gone after a job in Pennsylvania. Turns out, the answer was blowin' in the wind.
A Harrisburg-area police officer gearing up to catch speeders early Saturday spotted several $100 bills fluttering in the breeze along the road. Camp Hill police Officer Lane Pryor then found a folder containing the rest of the cash and contact information for the man who lost it.
Pryor tracked down the man, Jose Castilao, and returned the money.
Castilao had been on his way home Friday night after working an event at a Harrisburg-area country club when he realized the folder with his payment was missing.
Camp Hill's police chief says the officer's handling of the windfall speaks well of him.

What this cop doesn't know is that he will now be considered a snitch by the rest of the force. I've seen this in the movies. Happens every time a cop gives cash back. He coulda just kept it, thats what the other coppers say. What a brown noser, they say. They'll give him a hard time in the department. I know these things cause I watch cop movies.
