Taiwanese biker returns found cash

New Delhi: A Taiwanese motorcyclist has proven that money may not be the root of all evil.

Ho Hsin, a volunteer firefighter returned three bags containing $235,000 after it fell from an armoured car in Taipei on Sunday.

The bags fell on the street because of a malfunctioning door lock in one of its cars.

Sin said he suspected the bags contained lots of cash but wasn't tempted to keep it as it did not belong to him.

For his honesty, he's is eligible for a reward of up $70,000, a third of the value of the money he returned.
