A criminal charge has been dropped against a Connecticut man who found a bag containing nearly $5,000 in cash outside a bank and claimed “finders-keepers.”
A Connecticut man who found a bag containing nearly $5,000 in cash outside a bank and claimed “finders-keepers” had a criminal charge against him dropped Wednesday after he gave the money back. Robert Withington, 57, went to Bridgeport Superior Court for a scheduled court hearing, but a state prosecutor informed Withington's lawyer the charge was being dropped. Withington found the bank bag with $4,761 on May 30 outside a bank in his hometown of Trumbull, near Bridgeport.
He was arrested on Aug. 25. Before Wednesday's court appearance, Withington had given the town attorney a bank-certified check in the amount of the missing money. Withington continues to believe he did not do anything wrong, and blames the town employee for dropping the bag in the first place. “They dropped the money. Someone from the town should be fired for being so irresponsible,” Withington said in a phone interview Wednesday afternoon. “But I did nothing wrong. I just found a money bag.
