Missing some money?

Are you missing a “significant amount of cash?”

Police in North Vancouver are looking for someone who may be without their money after they seized a large amount of cash and a valuable rare coin collection from a homeless man who also was carrying bolt cutters.

RCMP say the 21-year-old “could not provide a lawful explanation of how and where he came to be in possession of the large amount of money.”

He was arrested for trespassing.

“Investigators are certain that the monies are stolen, perhaps from a break and enter of a residence or business,” said Cpl. Richard De Jong. “Residents, not only of the North Shore, are encouraged to check the places they may hide their valuables to see if they are still there.”

The rightful owner will be asked to provide details about the total amount of cash for police to hand it over.
