FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WOWO): What would you do if you found $9,000 in a donated jacket?

That’s a question a worker at the Blue Jacket Clothing Company on South Calhoun Street had to answer, after finding the wad of cash while processing some donated business suits and other clothing a local woman had brought in after the death of her husband, according to the Journal Gazette.

The money was in the pocket of a jacket.

The worker turned the cash in. Employees were able to contact her, after several attempts, and returned the cash. She says she had no idea why her husband had left so much cash in the jacket.
