Man causes traffic jam when drivers stop to scoop cash tossed onto Los Angeles-area freeway
(AP) 12:03:59 PM (ET), Monday, August 17, 2009 (GLENDORA, Calif.) California authorities say a man caused a traffic jam when he threw money onto a Los Angeles-area freeway and people dashed into the lanes to grab the cash. California Highway Patrol Sgt. Kurt Stormes says the man tossed money from his car on Interstate 210 in the Los Angeles suburb of Glendora shortly before noon Sunday. Stormes says about 10 people ran into traffic lanes to get it. CHP officers recovered about $1,000. The 56-year-old man then went to the Police Department in nearby Azusa. Police Lt. Steve Hunt says the man told officers he wanted to kill himself and was hospitalized for mental evaluation. His name wasn't released. Authorities asked anyone who picked up the man's money to turn it in so it can be returned. ___ Information from: San Gabriel Valley Tribune -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * I wonder if James was driving through and decided to stop for the cash ? ![]() I recall James had some driving to do this past weekend...(joking). No wonder the freeway is always busy with traffic. Think I will take a spin on the interstate to see how the cash...I mean the land lays... *
