Fallen money bag sparks cash grab

Police in the US state of Ohio say tens of thousands of dollars are missing a day after a bag of cash fell from an armoured car, sparking a money grab.

A mad rush to pick up $20 bills broke out after the bag fell from the car in Columbus and split open.



It is unclear how much cash was in the bag, but US media say it was at least $100,000.



Officers are reviewing mobile phone and surveillance videos to identify who has the missing cash.

"It's not free money," said a police sergeant. If people were found with the missing cash they would be charged, Sgt Dan Kelso said.

if that doesn't constitute free money, what does.
