俄亥俄州男子在路邊撿到14000美元

An Ohio man says he was trying to set a good example for his children when he turned in $14，000 he found on the side of the road.

Jake Bowers found the money on April 8 as he drove his family to a park in Worthington， a Columbus suburb.

Bowers said when he initially saw the bag on the roadside， he thought it might contain someones laptop. Instead， it was filled with $100 bills.

Bowers took the bag to the Worthington police station， and it was returned to its owner.

A police report says the owner had taken the cash to a car dealer but left without buying a vehicle. He told police he must have left it on top of his car and driven off.
