A couple had just picked their son up from daycare when they noticed a large blue canvas bag abandoned on the side of the road.
Police in Hawke’s Bay say they stopped and, upon examination of the bag, noted it was electronically locked and belonged to a bank.
The bagcontained a reported total of $70,592.60 in cash.
Police say they thanked two members of the public for their help in a situation where “nothing will come remotely close to this level of honesty”.
Inspector Chris Wallace says the actions of the couple were a true test.
”As a result of this find, the bank and its security company were notified. The cash bag was collected within minutes and made its way to the intended destination.”
