‘Significant sum’ of money found in donated pants

Anyone who believes they may have accidentally donated the cash with their clothes is asked to contact Langley RCMP

A lot more than pocket change was found in a  pair of pants donated to the Value Village in Langley, say police.

A staff member discovered a ‘significant sum of money’ in the pocket of a clothing item on June 4 when sorting through the donations. But it’s not known exactly what day that clothing came in, said police.

The staff member turned in the money, which is now in the hands of police.

This is the second time that a large amount of cash has been found in clothing donated to the Value Village. In September 2014, a wad of cash was discovered. No one claimed that money and it went back to the person who discovered it, said Cpl. Holly Largy.

If found money is turned in and not claimed, it either goes into Receiver General or back to the finder, if requested.

If you recently made a clothing donation and think this may be your cash, contact Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200.
