Finders not Keepers according to Police Board

Its not finders keepers, at least not according to the Kenora Police Services Board.

The board met yesterday and was asked to deal with a case, where a local woman had turned in a sum of money to the OPP she found this past summer.

Board chair Glenda McMillan says if the money isn't claimed it should be returned to the finder.

But mayor Len Compton suggested the money should be kept by the board and donated to charity.

Colin Wasacase feels the matter should be deferred until the board comes up with a policy in regards to found money.

The cash amounted to about 400 dollars.
