To the person who dropped an envelope full of money at Coquitlam Centre Mall: the RCMP has your cash.

An anonymous Good Samaritan turned in the money, which was found at around 12:45 p.m. on September 21, and police are now trying to find the rightful owner.

"When someone turns in an envelope full of cash, with no expectation of reward or credit, that shows the kind of community we live in," said Coquitlam RCMP Cpl. Michael McLaughlin. "We would like to close the loop on this selfless act by finding the rightful owner of the money."

Police said they have a description of the person that dropped the money but will be holding it back, along with the exact amount and denomination, in order to determine the rightful owner. 

The person that dropped the cash is asked to call the Coquitlam RCMP's non-emergency number at 604-945-1550 and ask for Const. Ashleigh Daniels (file number 2017-30202).
