Reunited: Watertown Man the Owner of Cash Left on Route 73 Trolley

A Watertown man is back in the black after he came forward to claim a grand a Good Samaritan and a MBTA operator took good care of after he lost it on his way home from work.

The MBTA Transit Police announced last night the $1,100 in cashwas back in the hands of its rightful – and somewhat inattentive – owner, a grateful Watertown man who mistakenly left the bundle on the Belmont-bound vehicle.

A female passenger gave the money to T Operator Kevin White at the Cushing Square stop who handed the cash to a supervisor at Waverley Square.

According to the MBTA, the owner called Cambridge Savings Bank to say he had lost the cash, the same institution the Transit Police called due to information found in the envelope.

The dots were connected and the owner came in to claim the money.
