This scene appears to be straight from a movie, but it’s real, and a host of drivers were all parked alongside highway I-285 on Tuesday evening in metro Atlanta trying to grab as much cash as they can. Dunwoody police Sgt. Robert Parsons said the armored car crew estimated the loss to be around $175,000, when the vehicle’s side door accidentally swung open. The drivers may have felt lucky initially, but now some are slowly returning the money to avoid any possible criminal charges. Read more for the footage and additional information,
“We had vehicles swerving off the road. We had pedestrians running around the middle of the interstate. Those people who do not return the money, we have video, we have tag numbers. We have footage of people on the interstate. What we’re asking the public to do is bring the money back. Don’t make us come looking for you, because if we do that, you probably will be charged,” said Sgt. Robert Parsons.
