SURREY RCMP are looking for the rightful owners of cash found — and also encouraging the public to make a police report if they lose a large sum of cash.

On June 4, a large amount of cash was located in a box of clothing donated to a thrift store in the 6900-block of King George Boulevard and subsequently turned in to the Surrey RCMP. It is believed that the box was donated between May 30 and June 2.

And just last month, on October 28, two Surrey citizens located cash in a parking lot in the 15100-block of 100 Avenue and turned it in to Surrey RCMP.

“The actions of our community members who found the cash have demonstrated genuine integrity. They have turned the money over to police in hopes it could be returned to its rightful owners,” said Surrey RCMP Media Relations Officer Sarbjit K. Sangha. “If you lose a large sum of cash, it is important to make a police report in order to increase the chances of having your money returned.”

Surrey RCMP say they would like to return the cash to the rightful owners. If this cash belongs to you, contact Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502. Claimants will be required to state the amount of cash they lost and what it was stored in to prove ownership.
