WINDSOR, Canada —
Commuters stopped their cars and scrambled for dollar bills in the international tunnel between Detroit and Windsor, Ontario, after a robber facing capture dumped $6,500 out the window of his car, police said Monday.
“Some people stopped their cars and picked it up,” detective Ed McNorton of the Windsor police said. “It was like Christmas.”
Police are appealing to people to return the money, but so far only $80 has been recovered.
Police have charged Derrick Hills, 30, of Detroit with robbing a Windsor bank.
