Story:
Ringwood, New Jersey (11/8/2010) - Joe Monto was driving when he saw a blue backpack on the side of the road. He pulled over and picked up the bag. When he opened it, there was lots of money and jewelry in it. He then took the bag home and looked for a phone number.
Joe then called the phone number he found in the bag. He met the lady who had lost the bag and gave it back to her. There was a total of $23,000 in the bag. Joe Monto returned every penny. The lady gave him $1000 as a reward for being honest.
Joe Monto said that he felt that the jewelry might have been special to the lady's family and that it was good to do nice things for people.
