Woman Finds $20,000 In Bank Deposit Tube

A woman who works as a makeup artist and deli clerk found $20,000 at a bank's drive-up depository, but instead of pocketing the find she walked into the bank and turned over the cash.

Linda Hatch said her mind raced in the seconds after she found the two $10,000 bundles in the plastic deposit tube.

"Am I in the middle of a bank robbery ... a drug bust, is someone going to pick up the money?", she says she thought. "I was like, 'Oh, my gosh. What do I do?'"

Hatch, who owns a makeup business in Arizona and also works at a grocery store, said the bank teller she approached was just as confused about what to do. "She looked at me like, 'What is this?'", Hatch said.

She filed a police report in the days after turning over the cash and hasn't been told by the bank whether the rightful owner has ever surfaced almost a week later.

Hatch said she was shaken for hours after the discovery. But she has no second thoughts about turning in the cash.

"It's not enough money to move to Mexico," she joked.
