Exactly how much money was found is unknown, since police didn’t disclose that information. The only reliable information is that they found a “significant amount.”
Callers have to prove their identity by answering specific questions about the amount, denominations, and what the cash was being carried in before getting the money back, Coquitlam RCMP officer Deanna Law said in a statement.
